Two retired teachers document the real monthly costs of liveaboard sailing on a limited retirement budget while cruising the Baja Peninsula and into the Sea of Cortez. Tim and his partner abandoned their original plan to buy and refit a cheap sailboat after discovering that low purchase price often means high repair costs.0:05 They pivoted to a newer used boat they could sail immediately, spending four years learning, fixing, and upgrading before retiring early from careers in education.0:30 The channel tracks actual expenditures — what gear costs, where they cut spending, and where cutting spending backfires.1:23 Their route currently runs down the Baja Peninsula and into the Sea of Cortez aboard Into the Mystic.1:08 The core argument is that blue-water cruising is achievable on a teacher's pension, not just for sailors with deep pockets.1:42 Buying a sailboat you can sail immediately beats buying cheap and refitting, when time and budget are both constrained.
