Houseboat INSIDER - do halloween and boats mix?
October 27, 2013
Hello

We're already less than a week away from Halloween, and I wonder how many of you are having a halloween party on your houseboats? If you are, here are some simple houseboat party ideas for you.

A great article for our female readers, and men too… :)

We're fortunate to have received a great article posted by Andree of Tampa, Florida describing her first and daily adventures aboard her houseboat. It's a must read for everyone, not only our female readers. Have a look at a woman's houseboat journey, the Searoom.

Remember, winter and Xmas are only two months away.

Depending on where you do your houseboating, some of you may already be in the midst of winterizing your boats. There are however some of you more fortunate boaters that may have only small heaters running, and some of you very lucky boaters that are still wearing shorts and sandals… :)

Here are some articles about storing or winterizing your houseboats:

* Winterizing a houseboat and storing for winter.
* Winter houseboat storage and winterizing tips.
* Can houseboats freeze in water or frozen lakes.
* You can search the 1,300 page website for any topic.


Stay Safe While Boating

Remember to be safe out on the water. So for now, enjoy the Houseboat Insider and our 1,300+ page website.

Sincerely, IAN (editor of www.all-about-houseboats.com)

Statistics show that not all the Houseboat Insider subscribers actually own a houseboat. Many of our new readers maybe looking to buy a used boat, or maybe looking to buy a new boat, or maybe to transport a boat, or looking to finance a boat, or looking for a great vacation rental deal?

Here's some other important links to tips and information on buying a new boat, transporting a boat, building a houseboat, insurance for houseboats, marine surveys, classified ads, and houseboat rentals.
