After a summer spent at sailing camp I wanted to do this. My parents quickly quashed that idea by throwing around words like “ridiculous” and “not feasible”. Obviously they were just jealous. This is so sweet, though I don’t know how long I could handle living on a boat in the winter, though I suppose there would always be the option of taking off for warmer climes.
Life on the boat can be tough. “But it’s a magical, fantastical thing and that’s why we’re here. You see the sun set behind the Chrysler Building every day. It sounds ridiculous, but you’re so in touch with nature.” (Photo by Rob Bennett, NY Times)
(From this story in today’s NY Times about five people who live on a boat in the waters off Manhattan, rent-free. Of course, they have Internet access.)
