boat

In early April of 2013, a group of us got together to sail the SV Rocksteady to Fort Jefferson. This old civil war fort turned national park is located on the Dry Tortugas, a series of islands located 70 miles west of Key West, Florida. Adam, Lauren, and Robert came out from Los Angeles to pay...

The following is an article from the German Magazine NEON. I translated it with the help of Google translate, so it’s a bit rough around the edges, but I think it still conveys the story pretty well. It features many of the friends I was living with in Key West, some of which you may recognize...

Hello, I'm a journalist from Germany, Munich, writing for NEON Magazine (a general interest magazine for people between 20 and 40). At the moment, I'm working on a story about boat punks ... I'll come to Key West next week (9th of June 2013) and would like to meet boat punks in New York as well...

Anyone? I've been looking at plans. Seems like a cool living option. http://www.tadroberts.ca/services/small-boats/barge/shanty20 http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bcrIKUacXhE/T6RB9PJx0xI/AAAAAAAABDI/17Oygeld-uM/s1600/AquaCasa20Scan.jpg

Hey everyone, as some of you may know from my blog posts, my friend Ryan and myself just got a boat in Key West, but hurricane season is coming in a little over a month and a half, so we're considering what or options are for escaping the storms and ridiculous humidity. Unfortunately we don't...

In this episode we very drunkenly tell the stories of the boat yard we've been living in for the past week in hilarious fashion. We also talk about meeting our first boat punks, fishing, selling the van, putting the boat in the water tomorrow, and taking the boat around the Keys to where we'll...

Anyone know of how to get a job on a boat to Hawaii..not for pay, just for travel and a berth

Let me know if I missed an already existing thread to this effect. Anyways I've been working for a bit and learning how to sail and have been looking to pick up a sailboat around 24ft on the cheap to live on. I've started to hit up marina auctions etc. Does anyone have any thoughts on what...

anyone ever hitch a ride on a boat to hawaii out of cali and if so where would be some good docks to meet some sailing folk?

Anyway. Aside from that - I'm liking the idea of getting a liveaboard sailboat and going cruising. Found a couple websites about it. Has anyone else met anyone or actually lived on a boat while travelling? Hobo Sailor Living Aboard Magazine

anyone wanna build cool stuff... hit me up... used a crappy circle saw and a crappy drill. It's my first boat out of new materials... I wanna make some crazy tree houses, geodesic spheres, sculptures, anything with concrete or stone.. turf roof, distillery, solar powered stuff, recumbent...

Maybe there were always nomads out there taking to the seas. Maybe travelers just got sick of the highways. Or maybe the aviation industry finally spilled too much fuel... In any case, boat-hitching is gaining ground in the rambling world – we wanna sail! I was spat into the whirlwind of...

i thought i posted this last night but i guess not, well i have just left living down in Key West FL for the past 8 months and ill say if you can make down there without dying in main land FL then its really a good place to wait out the winter. you can live on a boat anywhere in the water around...

Boat Hitch Hiking

It was late October of 2006, and my road dog and I had just spent the last few weeks kicking it around Vancouver and the islands enjoying the many treats unavailable to us in the states, and cursing the ridiculosly high price of beer. Eventually the rain started and we grudingly decided that it...

"Make sure you don't ride up my ass Bax!" I told him sharply when we stopped. Baxter had been riding my rear tire for nearly 3 miles, and I wasn't comfortable with his riddiculous competition, especially considering I could burn him (road vs mountain bike) in a straightaway. The Erie canal...
