Fractional Boat Ownership
Most people usually only use their sailboat maybe 5 to 10 times a year. The rest of time its just sitting there collecting dust. The sailing season is only around 28 weeks long. So your money could be spent better elsewhere then owning a boat on your own. When you get older you get more commitments which means you get to spend less time doing the things you love like sailing, but that does not mean you should give it all up.
Once your kids are old enough, they will also love to sail with you. Your wife and family will get great enjoyment out of fractional boat ownership. The advantages of fractional boat ownership are many. It's something different compared to just going to another vacation rental property.
You can afford to have a much bigger boat as well then if you were to buy one outright. The maintenance costs are next to nothing compared to owning your own boat. Painting, cleaning, debarnacling, it's all take care of for you.
There are many companies who offer this type of service. You could look online or talk to your local sailing club and they can help you make the right contacts. Make sure you read all the fine print before signing anything and ask all the questions you want.
