Get Set to Sail

The best boat buyers don't start with the boat.

If you're serious about buying a boat and living aboard or cruising full-time, the most expensive thing you can do is skip the education. Most buyers spend $25,000 to $150,000 more than they needed to because they didn't know what they didn't know. Our members don't do that.

Through Get Set to Sail or Captain's Circle, you get a clear plan, a vetted buying process, and a community with hundreds of people who have already done what you're trying to do. When you're ready to find a boat, you'll know exactly what to look for, what to pay, and what to walk away from. That's how our members buy boats. Start there.

Thinking of Selling?

Great adventures don't end, they get passed on. Let's find the right captain for yours.

We specialize in actively cruised, well-maintained boats, sail or power. If you've lived this life and want to pass it on right, we'd love to hear your story.
