Vegetarian live aboard

Hi everybody...

Thanks for the replies. Oh, I thought my email was public on this site? Anyhow, anyone that wants to email me personally can reach me at mark71565@yahoo.com.

Thanks for the non-refrigeration tip. I''ll have to take that into consideration and re-evaluate my thinking when it comes to actually buying the boat. I''m still shopping around.

As far as saving $10K a year... I was talking about what it was costing me before I became a vegetarian compared to what it cost me after switching to the meatless diet. I never really ate out all that much before... and now I hardly ever eat out, although in St. Louis there''s a really nice vegetarian resturant that I sometimes frequent if I''m in the area. But since I just recently moved about 2 hours away from St. Louis, I rarely go there anymore.

As far saving money, I just normally go to Sam''s Club and buy in bulk... rice, pasta, noodles, etc... plus I grow my own food since I usually grow a small garden during the spring and summer months (this save alot of money)... but of course, if I go to the live aboard lifestyle, I''ll have to forgo on the garden... unless I grow me a "wee orchard" like Kevin Costner did in Waterworld. Hahahahaha!

I would really like to make friends with any vegetarian that is currently living aboard. Any tips are greatly appreciated. And much thanks in advance.


Mark
