Hello Jordan
It might be helpfull if you tell us a wee bit more about what you
want to do..
'Sailing around the world' is fine, but fairly wide in it's
interpretation.
I dont see too many problems (from my insular point of view) in
chosing a boat for such a venture.
Why go with others ?, are you in a position to do it yourself ?
