l build micro shelters for homeless people that are about 70 sq/ft in size. living on this sailboat is a great way of understanding what it is like to live in a very limited space and how that space can be designed for maximum efficiency. After three days I felt like I had figured out how to adapt to the space and be comfortable in the space. one draw back of being in a space this small is the smell of the chemicals required to treat waste held in the head. It took two full days of ventilation to get rid of the lingering chemical odor, and then it was fine. before that the smell was ubiquitous.
There are things you have to figure out for yourself, too. The water ran out of the holding tank and I had to figure out how to fill it. the heater blew the main and I had to find the breaker. I liked the challenge of all this, but it might be daunting for others. This is a great place if you are an able bodied solo traveler and want to see what it might be like to live on a sailboat before buy
