And we're back living on a boat....But, it's not what you think! ;)


I've said it before, and I'll say it again....the boating community is some of the nicest people we have ever met!! We had numerous other boaters offer us their extra cabin when we so quickly became homeless. But knowing how small a boat can be, we didn't want to invade anyone's space that way.

We didn't however mind {too terribly much} invading family's space, when we crashed their vacation and spent 5 days with them on their 37' fifth wheel. Thanks again for that!! ;)

We then spent a week at an extended stay hotel and was starting to wonder where we would be living next, when we were offered a boat to stay on...score!! One of hubs' coworkers had just bought a 40' Marine Trader trawler and wasn't planning to move aboard for a little while. So when he offered to let us live on it through the month of September....we graciously accepted!! 

Now, because it's not ours I don't feel right about sharing photos of someone else's boat, especially without their permission. But please go do a bing/google search on this type of boat {if you don't already know what it looks like} so you can see what awesome digs we temporarily have!! 

It is seriously so huge compared to Irie! It's like a mansion in terms of size comparison.... About twice a day, I hear hubs saying, "how he is going to have a hard time getting me back on a sailboat" ....especially all these small ones he's been looking at lately! And yes, all boats are small compared to what we are currently staying on! :) 

As much as I do love power boats, I know fueling them would be quite costly and wind is free....blah, blah, blah! :)  We will be back on a sailboat....soon, I hope!! In fact, we are planning a mini-road trip this weekend to go look at some boats, so wish us luck in our search for the next boat!
