I agree with Dave. Just get a boat and learn from it. It’s an iterative process. If you’re lucky, you’ll get a boat you’ll love and want to keep forever - like a C&C 30 MK I :) - and / or you’ll learn from the experience of owning the boat you get, and apply the learning to the next boat you get, and so on. Maybe you’ll even own multiple boats at the same time someday.
