You can always dream/fantasize, or even rent/lease one. I've CONSIDERED learning how to sail, getting a sailboat and travel around that way for a while.
Being vulnerable to pirates/anyone could sneak up on you type things make me very reluctant about that.

Well my wife had a bad experience on a boat when she was young so no way would she get on a boat so thats no an option for me

Sorry to hear that, but it's probably for the best

yeah I think so I tried to talk her into trying a one day cruise but no way would she do it
