Thanks Güni............there are a lot of houseboats near where I live. Some people live in them all year round, and some just come in the summer or when they're on holiday.

Glad you like this little grouping.

I personally wouldn´t want to live there! Nice capture, Keith!

Keith Burton club has replied to Stephan Fey club
They're quite popular in the south of England Stephan. Some people live in them all year round, and some only in the summer. For others they're used as holiday homes.

They're not for everybody............I think I would have liked living on one when I was much younger, but definitely not now!

Glad you like the photo though...........and thank you.

It looks like the boat hulls and superstructure are being repainted. Only Ellen lacks support. A beautiful houseboat impression at low tide.

Keith Burton club has replied to Mikus club
I think you're probably right Mikus...........I couldn't get a closer look as that part is private property! I think that working on the hull of the boats would only be possible at low tide.

An interesting lifestyle dependent on season, I guess

I could have hacked it for the odd weekend in summer when I was younger, but that would be it............I like my comfort nowadays :-))

A colourful scene but not somewhere I would want to live, I hope you have a nice weekend Keith

Keith Burton club has replied to Peter Castell club
Thanks Peter............there's quite a large community here of both mobile homes and houseboats. Not really my thing, but each to his own I suppose.

Glad you like photo though.....

Diese Hausboote sehen aus wie kleine Arche Noahs. Schön anzusehen, aber für mich keine Option, dort dauerhaft zu leben.

Keith Burton club has replied to trester88 club
They do indeed. I wouldn't want to live there permanently, but it would perhaps be OK for a weekend break in the summer.

Thanks for stopping by and commenting Wilhelm.
