The vast majority of blue water boats out on the ocean every day are steel
hulled single engine fishing boats.
You can buy one for anywhere from  $30k to $150k complete with massive fuel and
water tanks, an engine you can rebuild for $10k, and enough space aboard to
travel with your own circus. And they are lots of fun.

I've seen these advertised, but tell me about the engine rebuilt for $10k.  I thought the cheapest rebuilds were 2cycle DDs at $3-5k per cylinder.
