Anyone ever owned a yacht and used it as a base for doing contract work?
I'm thinking I could base myself anywhere from Cayman Islands out towards Reading along the M4 corridor.
I know yachts are considered a moneysink (hence the aphorism "the second best day of my life was the day I bought a yacht, the best was the day I sold it") but if one were to buy something relatively new, I'm guessing costs and maintenance could be minimised?
I see you can get a nice little 200' butty cruiser for around £20000k; if I could recoup most of this in 50 years time, could be a good accommodation option to see me through to the end of my contracting days.
Looking at this one at the moment -
