Firstly, sorry I can't read Japanese so English is better but I can use a translator if you want to answer in Japanese. My plan is to sail from Japan to Australia. I want to buy a used yacht in Japan that I can sail from Japan to Australia. I want a yacht that is over 30 foot long & around 10 years old. All of my crew have sailing experience but no one has blue water experience. I am planning on flying back to Australia to get my license because it's cheaper than getting it in Japan.
My questions are; Where can I find a good deal on a used yacht? Is there a community near Yokohama that I can join to learn more about sailing in Japanese waters? What do I need to know? Has anyone got any advice for me?
