We decided some time ago that we wanted to move abroad in order to have a better lifestyle than we currently enjoy and are doing our homework now and re-structuring our finances etc to be ready to go. I have told the missus that we will be going before I am 40!
My wife teaches so as far as education for Elizabeth (our daughter) goes it should not be a problem although socially she would miss out if we didb't have a base/regular school etc. This is something we are acutely aware of, this is making us look more to the Canaries.
Here's a thought, we could spend 10 years in the Canaries and then go to the Caribbean when she leaves school!

at least i got people talking!

Re: Looking to setup a Yacht Charter
I'd be looking at a Sun Odyssey/First 47.7 I reckon- good strong boats. Any of the Beneteaus/Sun Odyssey's/First's. The Bavarias are good value for a new boat as well though with the keel isssue at the moment you'd have to double check your stats on it.
Chartering is good money but it's all about contacts and accessibility as most people will have decided their charter company before landing. If you end up in Crete you can do the summer there then spin round to somewhere like Dubai or the Red Sea for winter.
