I think I want to sell my home and just either live in a boat or an rv and fuck around the west coast until I eventually drop dead or somethingAnyone here ever actually live in an rv or a small boat full time? does one cost more than the other long terms? I suppose the boat thing sucks because no natl parks or driving around to go get supplies, but living on the water sounds kind of cozy honestly
>>2855384If you already have a pickup truck a trailer would be ridiculously cheaper. But all in all even if you went out and bought a brand new Winnebago off the lot it would probably be cheaper than a used boat. Boats are absolute money pits.
>>2855384>>2855385Living in a boat would be cheaper and more doable than living in an RV and traveling around.
>>2855386How would that even be remotely true unless you already knew how to fix everything on a boat and navigate? Sure you get fucked with more on land by people but you can also get fucked with by nature unless im just overthinking how hard it would be to live at anchor. I see some of the bums in Portland live on the river but thats alot different than open water ocean.
>>2855388The boats heart is the engine, as long as that is running fine and in good shape everything else is just small potatoesRVs have all the wheels and drivetrain etc to worry about so they end up costing more in usual maintenance per month, a boat just floats but an rv has to drive up and down or over stuff
90 minute massages only cost $30 in SEA.
>>2855386>Living in a boat would be cheaper and more doable than living in an RV and traveling around.No it wouldn't, there are FAR fewer places to dock a boat and thus you'll pay out the ass.There are a bazillion campgrounds in the US.
>>2855489Maybe if you had free campground parking from being disabled, if you know what you are doing for the same money you will have more space and freedom with a boat
>>2855492You do know you have to pay for a place to park the boat right?
>>2855496You do realize the ocean is right fucking there and you have an anchor for a reason right? Make sure your lights are up so no one collides with you at night and just fucking chillDon't sleep on the water if it's going to be stormy in the next few hours no shit otherwise are you stupid?
>>2855384>fuck around the west coast until I eventually drop dead or somethingplease have some decency to do it somewhere else where the wreckage of your trash trailer/boat and your rotting carcass won't trouble our overworked first responders
>>2855503You uhhh, you okay there bud?
>>2855390>everything else is just small potatoesLol no
Box Truck
>>2855497>Don't sleep if the weather's badThat's a ringing endorsement for a home.
>>2855623>>2855623On the open water, retard.
>>2855497Tell me you haven’t owned a boat without saying I haven’t owned a boat. I suppose OP is just supposed to swim to shore every time he needs supplies. Let me guess nothing but rain water and fish. You’re a ginormous low IQ faggot and your parents are embarrassed of you.
>>2855390>Theory crafting about maintaining a boat.
>>2855750> Not just distilling sea water with your solar power sailboat.ngmi
>>2855624>on the waterYeah that's implied by "boat."
>>2855862to be fair fella said open water
>>2855492National Forests and BLM have free camping. I think the limit is like 30 days at a time.Also rest stops along interstates.And Harvest Host is $99/year for thousands of places that will let you stay there in an RV.>>2855497dude what? lol>>2855384unless you really know what you're doing and somehow have access to a cheap boat that you can maintain, and have some way to dock it cheaply, then the RV is going to be more practical.Maybe if you know enough to be a commercial fisherman you could do that and use it to fund dock fees and fuel and stuff. But personally I would do the RV.
>>2855872Initially he just said "on the water," he only added the qualifier later and it's pointless anyways for any number of reasons. Why would someone who wants to "fuck around the West coast" be particularly far out? Even if he was, "don't go to sleep when it's going to be stormy" means your primary domicile is ass. Would you live in a haunted house where going to sleep during a storm meant there was a chance a monster might come out of the closet and eat you? And that's glossing over OP needing to dock & rent a car if he wants to go see some shit inland.
Unless you live somewhere tropical you WILL have to dock and store the boat on land during the winter. If you can sail then a sailboat could be cheaper then an RV, a motorboat of any real livable size has enormous fuel consumption. Either one requires a lot of DIY and spare capital in case something important breaks (rigging or the engine). I have lived semi-permanently in both and RV's are a lot simpler to own given they are automobiles and society is very car oriented. Freshwater will be one of you biggest concerns in both, an RV could use filtration on freshwater lakes but a boat will require a RO system if you don't want to dock every week. Unless you know places where it's free, safe and conviniant-ish to park or moor then don't bother with either, a marina can cost $15 a night, campground around $7. also OP is both fake, gay and a FED poster.
>>2855384You have probably driven a car before so I'd say go with the RV. Trying to just jump into a boat you live on and learning how to maintenance and navigate the seas sounds like it would be a nightmare and less of an adventure
>>2855385B.O.A.T.Bring OutAnother Thousand
>>2855384You probably want to look into how much gas a boat goes through. You can easily burn 10+ gallons per hour.
>>2856903How can you not realize the op is an idiot just wanting attention? Are you stupid?
