Hello All, Periodically the topic of "what does it cost to cruise?" comes up on the list. Last month's Cruising World magazine did a detailed breakdown of the cruising costs for 6 different couples, from fairly high-end luxury to spartan roughing it. Seemed to be a pretty realistic analysis, especially since the real numbers came in higher than I expected (typical of my estimating experience). Of course they're all sailboats, but many of the costs are similar. If it's a topic that interests you, I recommend picking up a copy. Bob Deering Juneau Alaska
