HI there, i'm new to boating, and considering a purchase of a completely stripped back empty boat. It has walls, windows an engine and gas hookup. But nothing for living purposes. It is a 36' springer. I would like to install a shower, kitchen area, wood burner and toilet on board. Along with all the thing that this requires, such as a boiler, pipes, pumps etc. the basics for a residential liveaborad. I am looking for any tips or guidance on a job like this from those of you who have expereince. So that i can get an idea as to what i am letting myself into. key questions are: On a tight budget, how much i am looking to spend? All things aside such as personal touches and detail quality, how long will it take to install all the equipment? Anything else that I am overlooking that should be considered before taking the plunge and buying the boat? Thanks for your Help!
