T&T: Trailable trawler

[Richard Cook]

We've spent two weeks to three months at a time cruising, for seven summers,
in a 22 C-Dory, including two months exploring SE Alaska in 1996.  Now we
travel in a 11k lb 26' diesel Bounty, which is quite trailerable with a Dodge
diesel pickup, even in the mountains of the west.  Five of the last seven
whole summers on the coast of BC and/or SE Alaska.  I'm writing from Prince
Rupert, where tomorrow I'll pull her out after an Alaska summer and drive
south to Utah.

It's pretty cozy, but it sure is fun.

I guess Bill & Ell living
aboard a 22' C-Dory for over 10 years is a  myth ! 

We have lived aboard our
22' Bay for two weeks at a time and only came home  
because of work.
I
realize this isn't nearly the same as full time live aboard, but I think  
it
can be done.
Besides Bill & Ell we have known others , who have live aboard in
small  
boats. 
I once lived in a 17' camper in my hippy days.

People like us
are a simple people and don't require a lot of luxury.  Which 
is good,
because in my life, my career always took a backseat to exploring  
this world
, so I won't be retiring rich, but will be retiring with big  plans.
We will
need  a small economical boat, to accomplish  this.
