Questions relating to navigation across the Atlantic.?

For some time I've dreamed of sailing across the Atlantic to Spain, then throughout the MED and back. I was wondering what to expect, what is needed, how long it would take the step, it might be better to cross, where best deptarture and arrival points would, estimated costs, which would be necessary, anchoring restrictions, danger areas, etc. My plans are to make the passage a 43 'and 55' multihull set to 4-5 years. As the boat leaves, what must the boat be equipped with (ie, reverse osmosis system, a backup generator, wind generator main parts, solar /, etc.) To open the door to more answers, which certifications are recommended that before my trip? Thanks in advance. Rc
