I wanted to introduce myself, as I just joined the group. I'll be turning 50 next month and my wife retired a couple of years ago. We are looking for a way to enjoy retirement and still live on her pension and what I can make as a handyman/whatever.
We have a 25' trailerable sailboat that I would like to keep and use as we travel so my thoughts were of getting a retired U-haul 14-17 moving truck, use it to haul the boat and a 22-28' travel trailer (one at a time) around the country, that way we can get the best of both worlds.
My wife has only seen one National Park (Yosemite) and I would love to show her the rest, also we would love to spend extended trips on the water sailing the San Juan Islands, Catalina, The Gulf of Mexico, The great lakes, etc. Has anyone one on here done something like that?
Looking forward to learning a lot here before we finally pull the plug.
