Hi Norm; Check out "Living Aboard" magazine, published bimonthly. Latest issue, May/June, is just out. LOTS of good info. We've enjoyed it for the last few years, even though we're not liveaboards. Their website is www.livingaboard.com. Also very helpful, although not primarily directed at liveaboards, is the organization "Women Aboard". They publish a great newsletter, also bimonthly. Their website is www.womenaboard.com. No financial connection; just a satisfied reader. Good luck. Bob and Grace Nerney Graceful E ll 30' Tollycraft
