I live on a boat in the Copenhagen harbor, nad have done so for the last five years. Here are a few answers: - My experience is that the humidity isn't as bad as it's made out to be. Make sure it's properly heated in the winter, and if you can fit it in get a wood stove. That'll take care of all humidity problems. I've never had any problems with food, clothes, etc. - I don't know about mooring prices in the US (or anywhere else for that matter) but my experience from Copenhagen is that if you can get into one of the smaller harbours that aren't as high-end and have a bit of fishing and other maritime business it's going to be a lot cheaper. Besides it's more fun! I pay around $1000 a year for mooring and access to water and electricity. - I pay $900 a year in insurance. Again this is Denmark and I have no idea about US prices. - Power is supplied by the harbour, and I've never had any problems. It seems as reliable as anywhere else. But living on a boat you want a generator, a converter and a good battery bank anyway for when your anchoring somewhere :-) You (and anyone else) are welcome to send me a mail if you have questions. It's in my profile. Since a lot of people, bot here and other places, have asked about living on a boat me and two other guys have just recently started a blog about this. It's currently located here: http://cbb.sjovedyr.net/ http://cbb.sjovedyr.net/ I'd love any feedback you have. It'll be available from www.copenhagenboatbums.dk in the near future, I'll put it in my profile when it's moved. Edit: The boat in the linked video does seem a bit shoddy, it can be done much better than that :-)
