An indispensable handbook for anyone living, or planning to live, afloat! Whether motivated by the heart or sheer practicalities, living aboard a boat has never been more popular. This beautifully illustrated and highly practical guide is the ideal starting point for anyone considering a home afloat and has been written to help them live the dream and avoid potential nightmares. This book sets out a handy step by step guide, from basics such as differences between different types of boat and the costs of getting a float and staying there, through to more day-to-day considerations such as maintenance, cooking, heating and sanitation, and deeper reflections on what it takes to make a success of life afloat. A fully revised edition of the authors' 2008 book Living Aboard, updated with a wealth of new imagery, this is an indispensable handbook for anyone keen to try living on the UK's inland waterways.
