For all my adult life I have dreamed of living aboard. I made this perfectly clear to my wife before we got married. She was not all that keen on the idea, but she was well aware of it. I had always hoped that I could sell the idea to her eventually and I'm sure she thought I would eventually "grow up" and forget the whole idea. I have held to my dream but have pretty much accepted the fact that the Admiral is not going to give up a house on the dirt. Well, I can't afford the boat of my dreams and a house, soooo......
We have just purchased a Nimble Nomad mini trawler. Not big enough to live on, but big enough to stay on long enought to scratch my liveaboard itch. It will be at a marina that is 15 miles away (20 minute drive) and has a trailer allowing us to take her to all sorts of nice cruising spots. I think this is the best I can hope for and remain married. I am looking forward to spending lots of time enjoying the boat and, who knows. Maybe the Admiral will grow to love the time spent on the boat as well, and maybe....... some day..........
