Hello All

I am new to this site and so far have found it interesting and helpful. I'm in the process of buying a boat with the intentions of living on it. I'll probably be asking for all kinds of advise, so. It's nice to know I have a place to go. Thanks...Mangus

Hi mangus, welcome to the forum. Ask away and you will get lots of opinions.

hi all iam new to the site i have a 36ft tri made from timber and epoxy i have owned her for 6yrs and in that time most of my time has been fitting her out you see i bought her as an unfinished project the original owner had a marrage breakdown usual story so in 2002 we started our journey luckily iam a carpenter so i had the timber skills to finisher but in 2005 my back went in a major way so now our cruising is rather limited to calmer days but some sailing is better than no sailing

welcome to Mangus and Trinescape
We have ben living aboard our boat for a few weeks now. It has been very challenging, but each day we learn something and fix something. Tomorrow morning, first thing, I get to rebuild the head and snake the lines to fish out the poop that is clogging the damn thing. Directly after that, we are going sailing.
