It might be worth considering buying a smallish boat with enough room for the basics and stay on it through the warmer months to get a feel for it and you'll soon get to know the other boaters around you who may have a friend of a friend who would appreciate the company (and rent ) on their large boat.
I resided in the boat, a "nomad," but built three berths instead of two! I spent 4 months on the boat moored in Fen Ditton (on the river Cam) in the hope of living in a caravan if the rental came to pass!

it was comfortable the summer as I had a job in Cambridge, and was able to use the facilities of the caravan site!
It was fitted out with a two burner stove, a parrafin heater (yes, I know! but the heater was elevated and had ducts in the open!) and a fridge...
As I relocated to a caravan in the winter I can't reveal what a winter would be like!

We haven't had a boat for ages now (Preferring to rent!) and theres a decided lack of water round here, but
I have named each boat "Merry Miller", short for "The Merry Miller of Barton Mills" ....

I look forward to the Jokes area too! I read them first of all....
I assume the [HOT] is a replacement for (easier to understand) to indicate un-read topics?
