People like Skipper Bob and Mark Richter are excellent resources on
how to cruise inexpensively, but what is expensive to one boat may
be inexpensive to another, or vice versa.

Speaking of Skipper Bob, here's the best book on the subject of
reduced-cost cruising under power, much of it applicable to power
voyaging, too:

Cruising Comfortably on a Budget
Living and cruising on a boat in the coastal waters of  the Eastern
United States. What kind of  boat to buy, how to outfit it, where to
go and stay, and how to live  comfortably all on a budget. Tips on
saving thousands of dollars while  cruising the East Coast, Great
Lakes and  the Inland water system. Information on cruising the
Intracoastal Waterway,  Bahamas, and Canada.  ISBN 0-9662208-7-0 (7th
edition) $24
