We live on a Doug Moore boat too, shes now called Elemental but I believe her original name was Blue Moon, shes had a number of other names since then too.

In the process of moving onto our first narrowboat and have started to change addresses. We will be living on a marina however we can use my parents address as a c/o postal address. When it comes to things like driving licence, vehicle log books that sort of thing what address do I use. The marina address because thats where I reside or my parents postal address. Bearing in mind that the driving licence is my main proof of id for collecting post. Im not sure what to do.

Here is the linky, we hope we made the right decision, its all very scary.

Definately not hehe

News Update! our loan went through and we put a deposit down on a boat on Saturday, so excited it hasn't sunken in yet.

Im from Stoke and fingers crossed if all goes to plan we hope to be buying a boat and moving to Overwater.

Hi Guys, We actually went to view the boat but decided that it just wasn't the boat for us. We are hoping (if Natwest authorises our loan) tomorrow to be putting a offer in on another boat. Very nervous but super excited if we get the loan.

Hi Guys, So I'm Liz, new to the forums and myself and my boyfriend are seriously considering the move to liveaboard status . We have as most people are at this stage cruising the brokerage websites looking for boats that might be potentially suitable for our budget. We have seen several but realise that the good ones get snapped up pretty quickly. Anyhow, I've been looking at this boat, it seems rather cheap imo for a boat of its length, or is it? I wondered if people could give me there personal opinions on this as I am sure that many of you with experience maybe able to read between the lines and offer advice regarding the advertisement that we cannot see due to lack of experience. We note that the boat has last month had a survey. Are we within our rights to ask the brokerage the findings from that survey? I'm not sure how it works. Anyway here is the linky http://www.venetianmarina.co.uk/used-narrowboats/details/2811.aspx The boat is called Foxglove. Many thanks in advance for any insights people could offer.
