You deserve bonus points for working the nautical term "scuttlebutt" into this thread.

I live on a boat, I try to work in nautical terms when I can!

I've fantasized about living on a house boat in a city before. How is it?

I was using a bit hyperbole. I don’t live on a boat full time. Just part time during the summer months. It’s pretty great really. I’m a boater, and love being on the river. So it’s cool to have a little house on the river that I can start up and drive around. For me it’s more about boating than having a house. What I mean by that is I know some people that live on a boat because it’s a cheap way to live. For me it’s a hobby. I like boating and a houseboat is the perfect type of boat for what I do now. I’ve owned all different types of boats, but houseboating is where I’m at right now. If you have specific questions, feel free to “slide into my DM’s” as the kids say.

In the late 90s I had a coworker that lived on one docked of Washington’s landing. It was nice until it wasn’t. And by that I mean when the River froze over and the ice floe ripped her home from its mooring and dumped it by the Point.
