Living Aboard

Living Aboard is not another "How we did it", book derived from the experiences of one couple or family. It is not about sailing around the world or to selected, far-off destinations. It is about living aboard a boat, whether in a slip, on the hook, or at sea. Granted, Gordon and Janet lived aboard for many years and in doing so learned the liveaboard lifestyle the hard way. They not only draw on their days as liveaboards but relate other cruisers' lives as well. By relating knowledge from a varied and diverse group of liveaboards, the Groenes' have made this book a true insight into the lifestyle. A lifestyle that is wonderful for some and a nightmare for others. The time to learn if this lifestyle is right for you is now, before you move aboard. After reading this book you will know if the liveaboard lifestyle is right for you.Living Aboard explains what to expect from the lifestyle. Janet's companion book, Creating Comfort Afloat, (Bristol Fashion Publications) explains how to make a boat your home. The Groenes have written hundreds of articles on the liveaboard lifestyle. Now you can have all that knowledge in this one volume, the Groenes' nineteenth book, Living Aboard.
