Here is a list of what I am wanting thus far in a boat- a nice teak interior that doesn't need sanded or varnished- enough sleeping space for 6, and there are plenty of boats for that- cockpit area that offers plenty of seating- a diesel engine that looks like it is in great shape- a good generator, hefty water maker, a washing machine, a water rinse at bow and stern, a place for diving gear, well I could go on- enough seating inside where everyone can eat without touching elbows too much- this will be a live in boat so it needs to be somewhat comfy- I really like the teak work on say the Hans Christian boats, here is a nice 52 for sale for $245,000.00 which is in my dream budget. 

Also, if you get on an airplane, the pilot could lock the other pilot out of the cockpit and purposely crash into the French Alps.  

The real issues begin when someone with virtually no knowledge of real estate believes they can read a book, attend a seminar or listen to a podcast and become competent to start drafting contracts and assignment agreements....not unlike someone who always thought of being a pilot, then jumps into the cockpit of a small plane and believes they can fly because they read a book about it.
