small houseboats
is it hard to maintain and live on a small houseboat?? What are the main costs and/or repairs that you entail?
I agree fully with "Capt. John" as long as you are an experienced boater. And he is right, it is a wonderful time, if that is your bag. The problem is that with asking the question it leads me to believe that you don't have a lot of experience in doing it. Anything is "Easy" once you know how" A surgeon most likely thinks it's easy once he has done a certain procedure a few 100 times, but I certainly wouldn't try it. So if you proceed just understand that there will be a learning curve to it. If you are a "Handy" type person then most likely you will take to it like a duck to water. If not you may want to investigate more. Boating and all that it offers is a great way of life, IF that's how you like to live. I LOVE IT! But I have a brother-in -law that would rather eat nails. So in the end it is about your personality and hobbies as to if you would like it. If this is about saving on living expenses then you better make real sure before you proceed. I would recommend renting a houseboat for a week or longer, just to get a feel for it. Renting is not cheap, but in the end could be much cheaper than getting into something that you are not too sure about. Happy Boating!

Tiny Floating Home Tour (Part 2 of 2)
{ 1 comment }
I will be 35 weeks tomorrow and for some reason Im more nervous about giving birth and I already have 2 kids (10 & 8). I already know I want the epidural I gave birth naturally to my last one and it wasnt by choice she was already crowning the first time they checked me.
The top portion of my stomach hurts so bad when Im sitting up it feels like somone put a hot iron there. Every time I walk in the store people stare at me and Im really cranky now so I wind up giving them the evil eye LOL.
Good Luck to you to!
