LIVE REWIND: THE PROS AND CONS OF BEING A LIVEABOARD

What are the ups and downs of living on a boat? Is it all bikinis and beaches or does the boat maintenance dominate life afloat?

This broadcast is specifically about the Pros and Cons of Being A Liveaboard and will be structured around the following topics:

1) Moving on to a boat
2) Leaving family and friends
3) Interacting with people
4) Bad weather, the tropics and the heat
5) Food
6) Maintenance and power
7) Healthcare and the future

We’ll kick off each section with a Patreon question and then it’s open to you! We’re looking for your opinions and questions on these topics (when using the live chat it may be best to leave your question for when we approach each of these topics, otherwise we may miss them).

In the live chat you can use the Super Chat feature to get noticed! Make a donation and your question will appear bigger than everyone else’s and we’ll drop everything to answer immediately!

Remember, we’re concentrating on the pros and cons of being a liveaboard for this broadcast, but do get in touch with us if you have a great idea for a future live show. You can email us at followtheboat@gmail.com
