I do not know why you think the insurance is higher ... me is $ 680 per year and have all the extras. (There is much, much less my own. ... But Brian has hit the nail on the head ... never enough space ... but that's not all bad (to prevent buying what they do not really need just because they no place for him in his boat. lol
Other than that - Laundry can be a problem if you have advice on washing machine and dryer. Not me, but if my port of Marina, only in underpants in front of the washer and dryer. Only 30 meters, but still an annoyance.
The good news is, if you like water, and in view of the water and everything that comes to - is a good way to stress of life free, beautiful and very frugal.
My cruise ship is currently a 44 'catamaran and gone. My oldest son (now 42) lives (and many cruise) in his mono-hull sailboat, and his suit is next to me. We are on the coast in Galveston Bay, and our "back door" has a view of the sea because myughter lives on his boat in Hilton Head - as "living on a pension, which to cruise in our blood.
Despite all the negative (and negative) do not change for anything. However, if your floating home for all the right reasons, you'll probably find that as wonderful as we all do.
Your Question: What are told some things that you have someone you want? "Not really for me, as I have with a big straw hat, my life, and knew what he was doing.
However, many others come to my statement and go ... All I can say with certainty who think it is a "cheap" way of life, and do so for "reasons of financial difficulty 'are those who are not happy - and generally leave when their resources to do . The other "group" of people who do not have to be modified, "those who think it is a" life of the party. "It is not.
Some ... I like the life on a boat very similar to what they see on the "End of Week 4 July" boating Tour (the life of the party boat). That's not it at all. Moreover, like all small suburb. The people here (living on their boats) come from all social classes, cooking, and income. Most work full time and go home to their jobs, their boats. During the week, and most weekends are the days very peaceful and pleasant. The nights are even longer.
Those who really love driving boats, boat, nature, water and a little rest - usually spend the rest of their lives living on their boats.
I lived almost my entire life on the boats, all from a houseboat, mono-hull sailing ship, drawn, and now a catamaran. The "floating home" is the best to live. But for me, as I go on a cruise, and the need to where a typical barge can not go. So my catamaran is a very happy compromise for me. If you're in a landlocked lake, then the ship is the best choice for live board.
Boating safe!
PS. Enjoy a look at your site.
If you live in the U.S. Northern I advice all year about life on a houseboat. In the winter you have to leave the ship to shower and use the facilities. If you live in a moderate living on a boat can be fun. This means you must not forget that the boat is much smaller than their house and have really no separation (walls, floors, etc.), if any of you are angry with others, it is the space on the ship for more privacy.
