Keep the 40 in here in the NE. Buy a condomaran in the south and move it about.
There is an old joke...what is fun to ride but you don't want your friends to see you on? A moped and a condomaran. Sent from my Android. Please forgive typos.

Catamarans; Check out a couple of world travellers who have logged thousands of miles on multihulls before trading up to catamarans; Checkout YouTube.com "sailing la vagabonde" is an Australian couple who have crossed the Atlantic three times in their 45 footer. Presently in the Azores. "sailing Zatara" is a Texas family of five presently sailing the Pacific islands on a 58 footer. They are in Figi. There are episodes of stormy weather but you have to hunt to find them between all the hiking, sightseeing, kiteboarding and SUP and surfing and diving episodes. A big catamaran is like two monhulls with a bridgedeck so it's gonna cost twice what a monohull would cost. But there's no lead ballast, so they don't need as much sail area to get going. I would think it is easier to find dockage for a 50 ft cat, than for an 80 ft monohull, and one person can reef the smaller mainsail.

It was great for accommodations and deck space for toys, but completely removed the “sailing” aspect of the trip. It was like I imagine driving an RV would be. Yuck!
