Living Aboard

Welcome to the 'TECHNICAL - LIVING ABOARD' pages of the SOA website.

Even the most fanatical owner will be the first to admit that Shrimper accommodation is not the most luxurious.  Extended cruises far from civilisation may not be everyone’s choice, but even the smallest improvements will make your stay on board a much more enjoyable experience.

Within these pages will be found tips and ideas for ways to customise your living area for improved comfort and convenience.
