Are you really sure you want to live on a boat?
First of all it might be more expensive than an apartment, mooring(slip?) fees are quite expensive.
Second, boat maintanance can be expensive too.
I recently spent a week on a reasonable 50 foot sailboat in a nice Mediterranean location and despite amenities (3 bathrooms for 10 people, nice kitchen etc etc) I was quite happy to get back to sleeping on the ground.
This was with good sailing weather and walking on ground every day.
The pluses for sailing are the community, every port you feel at home. I suppose it is somewhat similar to RV community.
So if sailing is in your blood then go for it
If you are a casual sailor I'd say this is idea will show its negatives soon enough.
- danieka 9y agoI've wanted to buy a boat for the past two years and now that I'm out of my apartement I felt that the moment might be right. I love sailing.
