It's the OG tiny house craze

I'd love to spend my summer working a sailboat ... an honest to god Sailboat. Learning to work the ropes, relearning all of the nautical shite I forgot from Boy Scouts, spending the nights seeing the stars in all their glory, catching a great wind and hauling arse, fighting through a squall and laughing about it at the next port of call ... hell yeah.
Anyone know where I can sign up for something like this?

A neighbor of mine did that for a decade after his divorce. He saved enough to retire.
I know another guy down the way from me that lives in a sailboat now. He's a single, older, off-the-grid type that paints for cash. He has a lot of freedom. It's not for everyone; but some mornings I'm jealous of them when I have to go to work...

I wouldn't mind it if it was parked in the yard. In the water without being able to garden, walk through the woods, etc...no thanks.

My dad (75) sold his house, 5th-wheel, second truck, and 40 acre hunting camp and built a bad arse 2 bedroom 1 full bath, kitchen, living room, wrap around porch houseboat and has been living in it for 3 years now. He loves it and we love visiting him and staying out in the bayou.

I lived on a 33' foot Ranger for some time back when I was young and single. I loved everything about it to be frank. I did not have a lot of space but really did not need much. I installed a water heater, A/C, small fridge and microwave and pulled out the old alcohol stove. One of the great things about being a live-aboard is that you can keep the boat in top condition because you are always there. It is also VERY inexpensive as electric ran around $30 a month and I think my slip fee was $130.
The biggest pro is that you will NEVER get turned down by a woman when you ask her to go for a booze cruz. It's how I married way up.

There was a documentary about a girl that lived in a houseboat on the atchafalya. Too many snakes for me.
