G'day crew! I'm in the market for a first yacht, and I'm hoping to be pointed in the right direction. I've never sailed before, however upon purchasing a boat I'd learn over time with courses and first hand experience. I'm after a boat in the 30 - 36ft range priced between 20 and 40k that would be comfortable enough to live on while I'm gaining experience, but seaworthy to take on a long offshore haul from Brisbane to Indonesia and beyond. Any suggestions welcomed. Cheers!

Jake
