About this listen
This eBook transcends traditional perspectives to provide you with comprehensive and detailed information about the realities of sea life. You'll discover how to evaluate your readiness for a seafaring lifestyle, understand the basics of boat living, and learn about the legalities of owning a sea vessel in the first few chapters.
As the chapters progress, the emphasis shifts from preparatory measures to essential skills. These include maintenance, repair, navigation, safety, and communication, all the nuts and bolts of living and thriving in a maritime setting.
Of equal importance is the guidance shared on different aspects of personal health, managing provisioning, nutrition, hygiene, and creating a sustainable, environmentally friend, onboard lifestyle. We don't shy away from the hard topics either, diving deep into dealing with loneliness, psychological challenges, and laying out plans for a retirement at sea.
Creating a space that resonates as a home is touched upon in detail with a lot of emphasis on discovering and implementing your unique style in the ‘Making a Home’ chapter. Further on, we provide a specific segment dedicated to pets and navigating family life on board to ensure everyone, including our furry friends, love their new home.
"Living Aboard" wraps up these lessons by offering advice on travelling to popular cruising destinations, coping with unforeseen challenges, and handling sea vessel emergencies. A comprehensive glossary of boating terms and inspection of resources for further learning is the cherry on top of these 37 well-paced chapters.
With this eBook, you'll not only be captivated but, you are also gifted with the keys to unlock the wild and free world of living aboard. It guides, inspires, and supports you in each step of your journey to the open sea, successfully making the transition from land living to cruising as seamless as possible. Come aboard on this adventure, and embrace the freedom and allure of the open sea!
