"The Essentials of Living Aboard a Boat" is an excellent guide for potential, or inexperienced liveaboards and boat owners alike. This guide is full of "need-to-now" information that can make life for a boat owner alot easier, and safer.
Most importantly for myself, this guide lays out, in detail, the possible expenses and monthly costs of owning a boat and living aboard. Before reading this guide, I had severely underestimated the investment.
Also incorporated, are many humorous and inspiring stories from actual liveaboard experiences, making this guide educational and enjoyable.

This is a must have for anyone thinking about living aboard a boat. Extremely well written -- and will save you $$$$. Read before you buy or even think about living aboard.

Rated by buyers -
This book is a terrific find. I'm still unsure if I will take the plunge and live aboard, but whatever decision I make it will be far more informed than it would have been without reading this book. The author goes over every aspect of preparing to live aboard in great detail. If you are considering living aboard, or you already have decided to, you should definitely pick up a copy of this book.
