Recently I switched jobs and will be moving to Wilmington, NC. My wife and I are looking for a house in town. Then browsing one day we see this boat. We're boaters, know our way around one, and don't mind adventure. We've never seriously considered living aboard because we've always been 2 hours from real water. Now comes this listing.
My question is, what event turned the corner for you as a live aboard? What's the worst thing and the best thing about it? If a couple, who drove the idea and who had to be convinced? My wife, one might say is "girly". She likes the pleasant side of boating, but not the grungy side. Still, she'll work her fingers to the bone to make sure something's clean though, and this boat looks like a home. She wants a home, and shes willing to see this for fun. Both of us are because its convenient. Living aboard probably won't happen, but stranger things...
The life clock keeps ticking downward, so I think, what if...
