[Rhodes22-list] The decision to Live aboard

[NAPOLI51950 at aol.com]

Keeping Raven?  I should think so!  Judging from the size of the foc'sl you 
could keep Raven up there.  Great decision, you will really love living on 
board your boat.

When my sister and I were in high school  and the other three kids were in 
grade school in Naples, Italy, my dad bought a boat and we all moved aboard.  
The younger kids were indeed homeschooled aboard and have become very sucessful 
people.  But more importantly, they have become better human beings for the 
experience.  My Brother is planning on doing what you are doing but with 2 
middle school age kids.  My younger sister is owner and captain of a 57 foot Bowman 
out of St. Martin.  The rest of us still can't get enough of boats either.  

Moving aboard a boat is a life changing experience and for most a very 
positive one.  Good Luck!
