RE: Introduction to ocean nomad life
Wonderful description of this fascinating life. It's one of those things that I don't see myself doing, but I'm happy that someone on this Earth is doing it. You have to be very crafty and hands on to live in a boat. Not me. If a lightbulb goes out in my apartment, I go cry in the corner.
thank you for an honest, realistic comment @litguru. Living aboard a sailboat full time is a lot easier if there's a fat budget to both upgrade all hardware (AC, TVs, watermaker, and all electric winches etc) and get someone to do the maintenance. However I would not have peace knowing that I don't know how something was fixed or how it works, so I rather plunge in with all the doubts and fears, take the risk of breaking or misalligning something, make mistakes, but eventually be in control and fully informed.
Appreciate you feedback. Thanks!
