Living Aboard a Boat - Marina del Rey, CAAn actress friend of mine, Deborah Williams, didn’t know what to do. For a few months, she had been living on a sailboat in Marina del Rey enjoying life on the water. When one of her dock neighbors had come on to her a bit too strongly she got tired of fending off his flirting and turned him down flat. Within two days she found a notice on the boat accusing her of being an illegal live aboard, despite the fact that she had faithfully paid rent to the boat owner every month.

If you respond to an ad on Craig’s List or elsewhere to move onto a boat, announce your intention to meet with the dockmaster just to introduce yourself. If you get a negative response from the skipper, the liveaboard probably isn’t legal, either because it isn’t allowed at all or living on that boat is limited to the skipper. ![]() The breathtaking beauty of the Mexican Caribbean is the perfect scenery for a wide variety of tours for the whole family.
