What do you wish you'd been told before living aboard?

Our cat won't eat them! He looks upon them as 'friends'

He would be horrified if he ever met my monster then - he views them as delicacies!

Oh how sweet, just like on Face Book. Do they correspond on the web?

 

I find spiders are OK and they help control the flies. Children find them a bit disturbing but not too serious.

Spider poo makes a terrible mess on white vinyl seating!

They mostly stayed outside our last boat , not sure if this was just because it was well sealed or if the dogs ate them all. Or maybe they just don't like Springers (boat not dogs).

 

New one is an unknown quantity in this respect. We're due to take ownership end of week but I'm superstitiously not posting photos or getting too excited until the deal is done. For anyone who followed my post last month about survey/broker issues - oh yes, we did commission our own survey this time. Happily nothing too serious. It's a Dennis Cooper build, not that I know much about this but he has a good reputation right?

Spiders are your friends. They eat other bugs and spiders in the UK are totally harmless. You should encourage them onto your boat, not chuck 'em in the water!
