Trawler life on a nickel budget is
possible.
I'm doing it and you can too.

Folks are encouraged to
submit short stories, vignettes or even longer articles that focus on
some aspect of life on or near the water. It's not necessary to be a
"pro" to write, so have at it! Suggested topics include:
1. I Remember When...
2. My First Boat
3. Who inspired you to be a boater?
4. Fishing Trips or Tricks
5. Or another subject of your choosing
For the novice, here's a hint for
how to create a piece for the publication on the website: Just
write as if emailing a friend. The
I Did
It
article began simply as a letter to me. And
now Charlotte's story can inspire others. You can do it too!

My home is not fancy by any means, however you cannot imagine how
wonderful it is to come back to her after an expedition on shore.
If I can live this life, why not you too?
