Re: Maintenance Budgets

It will vary quite a bit depending on how hard you push the boat and how many miles you sail. I'd put a figure of 5-6% but add £0.50 per nm. An ocean passage puts quite a bit of wear on steering, gooseneck, blocks, halyards sheets and sails. Living aboard also lets you keep on top of maintenance if you do it yourself.
