Well sure. As a boy scout I lived for an entire summer in a poptent. My wife
and I did most of the Loop in a 23' sailboat. A hermit near our house lived in
an 8' x 2' cave for 40 years (really). But then some people find 6,000 sq.
ft. MacMansions to be too crowded. Different strokes for different folks.

If you need a small, economical boat which offers just enough living room, I
recommend an Albin aft cabin 27. They are plentiful on the used market in the
$30,000 range.
