Hi everyone!
I'm currently living in Copenhagen Denmark. 1 Year ago my family and I
bought an old passenger ferry- The Arno II. The ferry used to cross
the german border and sail drunk people to buy cheap alcohol. A
strange concept, but a typical business model for us scandinavians.


It amazing to live on your ship, and I can recommend.
And I'm very qurious if I can find other people in this forum who has
experiences or interest in the liveaboard lifestyle?

There is an EMAIL list devoted (mostly) to living aboard. * You can
browse the archives and see if you are interested. * Much of the
discussion relates to issues here on the US east coast.

Newsgroup "rec.boats.cruising" also has some liveaboards.


Hi Wayne!
Thanks for this! I'm seriously trying to grow relations to other
people interested in the liveaboard lifestyle!
by the way...chek out my ferry!! :-)

cool?


It appears to be a beautiful ship, at least the top part! I visited
Copenhagen a few years back, and recognized the building in the
background. Copenhagen is a beautiful city, with a beautiful harbor.
It seems as though there are a lot of folks living in their ships
along the canals and the harbor area.

Hi John!
WHAT...do you mean by to top part !?!?!?!, ;-)
I agree, our yacht is not the most beautiful ship in Cph harbour, but
it a real ship- and ready to sail!
Many houseboats in Cph do not have the engine anymore. Normally they
are pulled out to buil more living space.
In that way our ship stands out!

Copenhagen is a great city, actually nominated as the number one city
in the world when it comes to lifestyle!,(through Forbes)


No, no. Don't take me wrongly. The picture shows only the
superstructure, so I couldn't see the hull. She's a fine looking ship!

My two favorite cities in Europe are Prague (Praha) and Copenhagen.
Sadly, they are in that order. But, that puts Copenhagen pretty high
on the list!
