Hi everybody
Been lurking around in the background for a while now, spending my time reading posts and searching for a mooring. I'm looking for a liveaboard, my preference is for a widebeam. However, I have been unable to secure a mooring until today. If I buy a boat from my local marina I can get a mooring, the only snag is they only have narrowboats for sale.
I'm thinking that as a complete novice this might not be such a bad idea, narrowboats are smaller so I guess are easier to handle? I will be single handed so this seems like a good option to cut my teeth on, furthermore if I am living aboard and getting to know boaty people my chances of finding a widebeam mooring in the future will probably improve a little??
Have spent the day looking at boats a couple have taken my fancy, so in theory I could make an offer tomorrow and could move in relatively quickly. Just need to decide if I can live in a corridor!!
The idea is that in a year or 2 I could sell the narrowboat and find a widebeam. Does this sound like a reasonable plan or would you expect me to lose to much money on selling up so quickly?
Any thoughts much appreciated.
Thanks
