It obviously works for some but we felt that space in the hold/under the deck could be better used. See what you think when the article comes out but don't dismiss tugs when you come to buy your boat there is a lot to be said for loving the look of your boat!!<br />LesleyNb Yarwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14806115768980012184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5490581806872830289.post-40074409415871244202012-02-19T18:34:18.305+00:002012-02-19T18:34:18.305+00:00Just catching up here ...

I, too, wondered about the practicality of the design for living aboard/cruising ... until I looked round Warrior (formerly of Sarah and Jim) and saw where the bed was (under the tug deck).<br /><br />I look forward to reading Adam's review - no doubt you do too!Halfiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00167481543065324357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5490581806872830289.post-83528288341102592462012-02-05T19:24:30.606+00:002012-02-05T19:24:30.606+00:00aye !!aye !!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5490581806872830289.post-85251452946558054952012-02-03T22:19:35.687+00:002012-02-03T22:19:35.687+00:00Just wait until you start boating with her and wor...Just wait until you start boating with her and working locks etc. You will wonder how you ever managed with that tent on the front getting in the way. Although we don't live aboard we sleep in the BMC in a cross bed, bigger than a tradition one, but just behind the engine room and nice and warm.ditchcrawlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02939158207679306372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5490581806872830289.post-13415036902753955072012-02-03T18:30:49.539+00:002012-02-03T18:30:49.539+00:00Hi Meteor

Our initial tug 'contact' with Brian on NB Kyle was informative as he is a CCer and liveaboard and has been so for years. We found a way of getting a tug to fit our requirements so don't dismiss tugs as non-runners in your search...<br />Best of luck<br />LesleyNb Yarwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14806115768980012184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5490581806872830289.post-51560820432605655682012-02-03T18:22:21.787+00:002012-02-03T18:22:21.787+00:00Hi Anon

I have to admit I had the same thoughts of practicality for a liveaboard but it seems you have used the space well. I also feel the boatman's cabin is a really useful snug/guest bedroom/temp store, separate space for couples for those times when distance is needed and all in all a nice place. Just need to find the boat that we can afford !Nev Wellshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07047359519459723079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5490581806872830289.post-78966015029500691142012-02-03T10:57:55.952+00:002012-02-03T10:57:55.952+00:00been thinking about this and with the problem of b...been thinking about this and with the problem of bikes on the towpath these days, plenty of room on the deck for a bbq etc. so i am almost sold on the tug but all though its not a waste of space it just don"t look right to me.
