Living on a Boat as Your Only Home

I've thought about doing this since i live on the ocean anyway. Don't know much about handling a larger boat though but I'm sure I could learn.
Seems like it would be impressive as hell to girls; you would come across as an adventurous independent guy and a lot of girls like to fuck on boats
Would be so easy to get her back to your place "Want to see my boat?"

I think I'd make a pretty good Captain Ron.

It's a lot of work to keep clean. I have a 40ft Chris craft for sale that was sunk and needs repower. Perfect live aboard with some work..Cheap!

I love this idea. My ideal lifestyle would be one where I am most of the time away from home and always doing something anyways.
Having a small, comfortable pad as a boat would be amazing.

I've given this some serious consideration as buying a house in a decnet area in England is riduculously expensive. The problem is if you want to live anywhere near a city you'll have to go on a massive waiting list. Its a piece of piss to do it out in the sticks but not exactly good for logistics. So a non starter for me as a single man.

Gob Bluth did it.
I can't have sex with your personality, and I can't put my penis in your college degree, and I can't shove my fist in your childhood dreams, so why are you sharing all this information with me?

Most the time they're not worth restoring and the coast is not littered with boats. You can buy them though from marinas that put liens on them. They're so cheap here anyway.
About wood boats.. A complete avoid unless you have a fetish for wood boats. Think lake tahoe.
Once you start doing this you'll learn quick and big sailboats are the cheapest route with the most living area. I get offered them all the time but it's really cheaper in the long run to buy something mint if you don't have the cash it's a bit of work.

Mech, you are advising buying a boat and flipping it with a minimal amount of fix up?
How much would a guy need to start with?

Is it safe to live in a boat? I guess it is not so difficult for a thief to break into one

Had a guy I met at the boat launch on the way back from fishing named, "River Bill." He claimed he had sailed all the way from Maine to the Gulf Coast with just him and his dog. He lives entirely on the water. He said that he gets sick of seafood, so we got him some pork chops. I haven't seen him since. This was in the early 2000s. I wonder if he's still afloat or alive for that matter.

I know I posted in this thread already but I was thinking about building a miniature house-trailer for like ten thousand dollars or something. Literally just big enough for a computer, a bed, and a refrigerator with a stove.
Just like this - you can buy plans here too!

That's a pretty good alternative to homelessness in my opinion.
I would build it nondescript looking though. An actual miniature house on wheels is too gaudy in my opinion. It would be just big enough to bring one and hopefully two chicks back to bang. This thing would be sweet on job sites that were out of state.

I've done tons of research on the sailboat option over the last 5 or so years.
Sailboats require a lot of maintenance. Recently, I've been trying to think of an affordable solution that can travel the world, survive any storm, be sailed by an idiot, requires very little maintenance and still looks classy enough to bang chicks inside.

I thought about getting one for retirement. Im talking 100 ft+.
Hang out in SE asia cruising all over the damn place. Offset your costs some by offering it as a charter/party boat/renting rooms.
Kind of like a biz/retirement. A budget around 150k is enough, 200k can get you into something real nice.
Would sure as hell beat living in suburbian America in a 150k house.
God'll prolly have me on some real strict shit
