[PUP] The Right Boat

The three top items on my list for an ocean boat are:

 1) RANGE > 3,000 miles i.e. adequate to reach any point on earth with 
reasonable routing adjustments.

2) Stabilizers of any kind, passive, active, compensating or whatever, 
without them life is to uncomfortable - sometimes.

3) Water supply - a water maker or >200 gallons of tankage or both. We can 
get along easily on 10 gallons a day or with rationing on 5, so that allows 
for 20 to 40 days of water.

Other thoughts ?
