And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
the most comfortable berth would be amidships. you would need to carry only essential items. if you had two people on board they would get on each other's nerves very fast.
That looks very similar to the "research vessel" that a UC Dais professor gets paid to cruise around on Lake Tahoe while studying the lake's water clarity. Nice work if you can get it.
People have sailed around the world in 25' sailboats.
There's even a boat co. in WA that makes a living selling people on models from 26' to 54'.

Obviously, bigger = greater range and more comfort, but a couple can live quite happily on the smallest model, and many people have done exactly that for decades, in accommodations featuring both a shower and a head in every size. (Duh!)
Hey Aesop, thanks for the link to Nordic Tugs. Back in the mid ~80s I toured one and took a cruise out of the harbor in Juneau. A salesman had brought one up from Seattle. About the only thing that sticks out in my memory was the awesome craftsmanship of the interior. Michael
I am a bit surprised that no one mentioned that this is a Kanuk boat. They are most likely patrolling the lake to catch and stop Amercian libtards that are running away from "the Donald"!!!
Has kinda Kadey-Krogen lines, but is a classic. My old man and I lived on his trailer every summer very comfortably. Slept like a baby, had everything we needed. Being able to use the arina clubhouse porcelain didn't hurt though! ;-)
It would be a tight fit and it can be done, like Rob said at 1746 pm. I lived in a 43 foot sailboat in London (It Sucked because of the cold winters) and lived on a 40 foot trawler in Florida. Overall I enjoyed it but there are some limitations... Barco Sin Vela II
Hell Yeah! A bachelor's boat. Piss over the side, cool your beer in the water, throw a line or trap over the gunwale, super fresh still wriggling sea food, no real estate property taxes, all the pretty spots to anchor up, and use it to bring in an income, lot of it in cash. Always wanted to try that lifestyle. Matt Bracken got it right I think. Particularly with his steel hull schooner. Tells some good tales, his latest novel is fantastic, just a great story, with wonderful characters.
Only if I had a bottomless checkbook.

ReplyDeleteThat looks to be about a 35-footer.

ReplyDeleteYou have to want to live on a boat to do it.

ReplyDeleteI have known people who lived on boats in Valdez Alaska. There are a lot of people who live on narrow boats on the canals of Britain.
