Thank you for your replies!
Valhalla....lots of questions :). Love the idea of having a boat in Europe and rv in the states! We spent 2 years in Mexico on our boat and if we had a rv set up in the states we probably would have kept going but since the boat was our only home the decision was made to bring it back to the states. I am hoping that having a RV would allow us to do more extended traveling on the boat :). Right now we have a liveaboard slip in the California delta and I am very curious how you handled the liveaboard situation on the boat in the US. It seems that is not a issue with RVs but as I am sure you know being able to legally live on your boat in the states is no easy task unless you are constantly moving. Did you have a liveaboard slip and if so did you give it up when on the RV or did you maintain it? Do you see this situation working long term for you?
This whole idea came up because we were considering selling the boat to purchase a land home but now I am wondering if a RV would work in lieu of buying a home and if so if it would be a good long term solution. It seems we must be part gypsy because I keep trying to find ways to keep us from settling down.
