livingaboard

This is the final podcast of the original 5 part series.  I'd like to take some time to chat about liveaboard and boating costs.  When I first started along my journey aboard, I had thought of only the primary 4 or 5 costs - boat payment, interest, insurance and the marina rental.  Wow was that naive.

Episode 5 is a review of the 'free!' liveaboard spreadsheet (free on www.livingaboard.net), explaining different costs among a few different scenarios.  It is just for discussion purposes, but at least the categories of life aboard are covered.

SO... hope this doesn't scare you away from the lifestyle.  Just hoping everyone goes in with their eyes open.  It is the key to success.
