They obviously aren't aware of real estate prices. Of course this is in California where common sense departed that when Marc moved. 180 SF for $2 million. Must be quite the view.

I have an uncle that lives on a larger sailboat and has done so for over 30 years that I am aware of and he would not trade it for anything. If he decides he wants a change of scenery he will just pull anchor and sail to another location... He has lived all up and down the California coast. Strangely enough he is a pretty conservative guy and very much anti big government and would fit in just fine here...

Liberals tell us that if we disrespect Muslims, it’ll just breed more violence. Translation: if you disrespect Muslims, they will kill you.

This is an interesting idea. A typical cargo barge is freaking huge! Have you ever seen any plans for a home/shelter built from one?

These are typical inland river barge sizes. Its impressive when they are moving 5x7 on the lower Miss.
