I’m an old woman (75) I’ve lived aboard for years and I love it! Started with a 30 ft. sailboat, then a cruiser and now an old houseboat. If you’re interested I can send some pics. The 1st thing I will recommend is get a really good dehumidifier and run it 24/7.

Going through a divorce at the moment I’m going to buy a narrow boat and live on it I need something different in my life sick and tired of being ripped off with council tax water and electricity I need something different.

This afternoon I fly to France to buy a canal boat, so you are not alone. I agree with your statement don’t change anything until you have lived in it for a while

I ran away from life and now I live in a caravan and travel in my van. I’m so used to it now and I couldn’t go back to a house.

So can you sail the boat or must it be kept docked at all times? Is there a difference between a house boat and a boat boat. Sorry if this is a dumb question. 😁

When I was 11, my parents sold our 3 bed detached house and moved the 3 of us (me, mum and dad) onto a 60ft narrow boat. Imo it was the worst decision they could’ve made. I spent my teenage years with no privacy, in a tiny bed in a corridor.

We used to live on a boat. Bit longer than yours but same sort of set up… space is hard! I had my cloths in my boot and rotated them. And joined a gym just for the shower 😂 saved so much money though so it was Definetly worth it
