    Hi everybody

    Perhaps the forums are some sailors.

    What is the best boat for the novice sailor?

    Thanks in advance for any tips.

    You can get your sea legs with a 16 ft albacore day tripper without spending a lot. Will get you used to dealing with a jib, tacking, sailboat protocol and safety.

    Yes, what have you has experience with?

    Yes I guess some of the issues are , budget ? I mean a yacht with a crew of 10 is different than one with no one but you and/or family.
    Are you going to take classes?
    Do you know anything about boating?

    Are you buying ?
    Have you considered renting and trying different types
