The two happiest days in a boatowner’s life - when he buys it, and when he sells it

I did it for 5 years in the 70’s. BEST YEARS OF MY LIFE!!!

Yes it is a lot of work, NOT worth it if you are going to live in 1 spot. IT IS ONLY FOR SERIOUS CRUISING.

I did the far east, Indian Ocean islands, South and East Africa, Red Sea and Eastern Med.

Nothing compares to real cruising but be prepared to be self sufficient. YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN.

Never heard that one before, but I totally can see it. LOL!

I’ve never wanted one. Just need to find a friend who has one.

Reading through the thread has opened my eyes. I have always dreamed of a live aboard situation and now see it highly unlikely pro v con.
