There is no minimum size. Just common sense
Well I am sailing instructor and there are lots of us around the wold. We know sailing. If u need to no more about sailing ask me.
First of all, you need a boat, preferably without any holes! You need to dress appropriately, i.e wet suit or possibly even a dry suit. Over that you'll need overalls to protect both your wet suit and yourself from the wind .Then you'll need to rig your boat... happy sailing.

The best way to learn the rules you need for sailing are the same as in any other boating activity and can best be learned in a free United states Coast Guard Auxiliary class. I know of two good ways to learn to sail. The first is to volunteer to crew for some one that owns a boat. The other way is to take a vacation and attend one of the many sailing schools that you will find listed an most sailing magazines. Sailing like many other activities can be learned in one day but you can spend the rest of your life trying to learn how to do it well.
Unless it is an especially fast boat, the average sailboat sails 5 knots if they're lucky. That's 5 nautical miles per hour. Multiply that by the number of hours sailing per day (are they sailing at night?) and you get the range. Since the wind is a factor, you will soon learn it is impossible to predict the distance any given day or week. Sailboats are for people who enjoy sailing, powerboats are for people who need to get from point A to point B.
You need all the senses. (eg. sight,smell), a boat, a sail, some water to sail in would be good, a tiller, a rudder, and some wind would be useful too.
You will need a boat, but you can rent a boat from a club sometimes. Also you will need proper clothing. This includes shoes, jacket (wind breaker like), maybe gloves, polarized sunglasses, sunscreen, a hat, and a special certified life jacket. sometimes you may want to bring extra rope just in case, also a Swiss army knife may be good. Happy Sailing :) check out the book "25 Things Every Sailor Needs (and why)" for a complete list of everything you should have when you go sailing.
A sailboat around 25-40 feet in length would be suitable for sailing between Louisiana and Florida. This size boat would offer enough space and equipment for long-distance cruising while still being manageable for a small crew. It's important to ensure the boat is equipped with necessary safety and navigation gear for the journey.
No
Sailing Ships need frequent painting because the air in the sea is salty so it will rust
