That is exactly what I'm talking about. That's my old hood.

There are several marinas around GVRD that could suit your need..... here is a 4 year old article that should give you some ideas about options.

Wasn't there a tv show on floating homes in Whitehorse?
Wonder if there's places you wouldn't be stuck paying mooring fees.
Don't moor them to a dock. Drop anchor and live free baby.

100 parties in two years? Who wants to be living six feet from these guys?
Our friends left Calgary and bought a floating home in Ladner. One big dog and no kids. It's surprisingly spacious, i think it's 3-4 bedrooms, large kitchen. They love it. Kayaks and on their boat in seconds. We stayed their for a weekend and didn't notice the waves much, but their unit was located a bit inward, not sure if the units on the end would be worse.
During the winter months, the howling wind storms would make it more interesting for sure.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
My realtor friend in Richmond just told me how horrible it was as an investment. My wife convinced herself out of it anyways....women.
Realistically i think they're just toys for rich people, some of you Aspenites would definitely might be interested in buying one. I don't think a bank would even give a mortgage out for these.
Someone mentioned trailer parks...there are actually decent trailer parks in BC lol...but those seem to be 55+
As of right now, the plan is to rent something...either that or find a cheap townhome that isn't somewhere like in Newton lol saw a listing the other day in Newton and then googled Newton, apparently it's worse than the DTES.

Its worse than Dover over there. Surrey is bad enough as a whole area, and Newton is just a war zone.
Having said that, buying an actual boat, and then living on it, is definitely doable if you find a decent place that suits your lifestyle.
When its gray, windy and wet for 6 months, you have to be able to manage this. Hauling groceries along a dark, wet dock at night is not a fun thing.
I personally looked into something similar. After living in a concrete jungle for 7 years, I wanted to live closer to nature. Boat/float houses are dope if you have a great view and location. Also, the fact you can cruise your float house anywhere. However, make sure your set up for off grid if you want to move around and about.
I would not pay 1000 for a month for mooring... thats steep for just parking your water trailer.

Yo Kanye, ima let you finish, but 50 Cent had the best concert cancellation of all time.
Boats require days of dry-dock maintenance every year (maybe try stretching that to two years). I wonder how one plans for a week's worth of homelessness when that maintenance occurs.
If you have money, I suppose it's easy to plan some vacation but if you're doing this to save money and living close to the wire... That's a different kettle of fish.
Oh, the nautical references are cumming out of me like seamen.
