I am now the owner of a 38' Bayliner.
:tif:

I will be living on it for a couple months, which will be quite a challenge considering I don't think I have ever stayed overnight in a hotel room that small.

It needs some work and a friend is already queueing up to buy it off of me when I can go back to living on land so there's that at least.

I feel like there's quite a story that has led you to this point, but I'll settle for pics of the boat.

you know we're gonna get both.

Also the V-berth is basically a queen sized bed

I bought a 5th wheel to live in but it needs more work than I anticipated so, at the last moment, a friend loaned me cash to buy a boat.
Another friend (who is a boat person, that looks like captain ron, and is the one who wants to buy it when I am done) pointed out that it's rare when a good idea involves buying a boat.

I will take a picture or two the next time I go visit it.

well I'm sure the boat won't need any more work than the 5th wheel.

surely.

I know, right? It is in a substantially more livable state however.

If you're gonna live on the boat in the winter, that means probably running an electric heater near-constantly

I am in california, winter is a relative concept. Also, I should be fine; I am leaving a victorian house with no insulation and an insanely inefficient heater that is prohibitively expensive.
