A Home Afloat
Living aboard vessels of all shapes and sizes

Available. Delivery estimates

A Home Afloat gives an enticing peek through the portholes, and access to a wealth of inspiring ideas for anyone wanting to make their home aboard a boat of whatever shape and size. This gorgeous coffee table book is bursting with interior design and furnishing ideas for boats and other small living spaces, and looks inside motorboats, riverboats, houseboats, yachts, barges, tugs and commercial vessels.
    A Home Afloat gives an insight into the lifestyle of people with different budgets and outlooks on life, but who have all made the decision to live afloat. The beautiful photography shows that living afloat can be every bit as luxurious as life on land.

    'A home afloat is definitely the way to live. There's nothing better than watching the sunset from the deck of your own waterside residence and being rocked to sleep by the bobbing motion of the water - and when you want a change of scenery, you can always set sail.' – The author


    About the Author(s)
    A writer, designer and keen renovator, Gary turned to a liveaboard lifestyle after discovering a neglected Dutch sailing barge in the mud of the River Medway. After a two year gruelling refit, it was transformed into a comfortable floating home moored on the Thames. Gary currently runs his own graphic design business in Australia.
