Where can I buy a large wooden sailboat?

Do you have any idea just how EXPENSIVE a large wooden ship is to buy AND to MAINTAIN which can easily cost twice what you paid for it every year.. When Disney bought the Jolly Roger (the Pirates of the caribbean boat) so they could have it on their private island in the Bahamas they paid over ONE MILLION DOLLARS for it so it you want to by something like that you are looking at a minimum of One MIllion US Dollars and if you want to BUILD one.. you will be shelling out several million for it.. and you STILL can't sail it across an ocean because no builder will CERTIFY it for ocean travel nor will any COAST GUARD give it s certificate of SEA WORTHINESS.. you DO know that to sail across an ocean the Coast Guard of the country where the boat is leaving from is responsible for inspecting the boat and certifying it's suitable for Ocean travel.. you do know that.. right?
