A Yahoo group we subscribe to recently had a discussion about blogs and what interest people. That got me to thinking about who would be likely to read our blog and why we go to the trouble. Since we are working through the challenges of being new to living aboard, and get periodic questions about how / why we made the choices we did, it seems reasonable to focus on us as new live aboard owners.
So backing up a bit:
- Salish Aire is a 1996 Nordhavn 46 ft boat purchased in Florida to be moved to the Pacific North West (PNW) (Washington State, USA).
- We chose to move her in a freighter to get her to her new home.
- Since getting her in her home berth we have focused on getting her ready for a PNW winter and making sure we understand her electronic systems and that they function the way we like
With those thoughts in mind, I will try to add some sidebar articles on what we have learned along the way.
