Living on a boat is fun but has its challenges. Susan Smillie who’s been living on her ketch in London for the last ten years says, “The best description I can give is that it’s like being on holiday – all the time.” Though often difficult to find a residential mooring in cities like London, there’s been an increase in people turning to boats due to growing house prices. Do you live on a boat? If so, we’d love to hear from you.
