This is the mighty vessel "Dumpshine" a float home built out of recycled materials gleaned from the dump by a very talented musician friend of mine.

Float Homes For the ultimate west coast feel, living in a float home along Spirit Creek, is an option for a few. On this day when the sun was out I could have just moved in! The ducks on the piling took the cheaper option. #floathomes #floathomesvillage #spirittrail #northvancouverbc #livingonthewater #mytravellinglens (at Spirit Trail) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn7BABGrlte/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Hey itās 6:42pm.... So today we made a last minute decision to head down to Fishermanās Wharf in Victoria to bring the kids to see the float homes and now we want to live in one so Sooke should start a small community for float homes cause that would be a cool site to see. #642iseverywhere #642 #642wear #sooke #sookebc #vancouverisland #bc #canada #brand #clothingbrand #clothingstore #logo #fishermanswharf #floathouse #floathome #floatinghouse #familytime #familyovereverything #retirementplan (at Fisherman's Wharf Victoria - Official)

Aquatic Nomadism: floating ideas I've had for eons of living on the water. I #dream & #design of adapting & #Upcycle of an old industrial barge into something livable & moveable. "Nothing beats a leisurely summer afternoon out on the water, canoeing/kayaking or sailing, but could you live on the waterĀ permanently"? you betchya, baby! With Rising Sea Levels Aquatic Nomadism may be the way to go for many of us ... Go across to Vancouver Island or up to BC's Central Coast region - halfway up to the Alaskan Panhandle, where Royals Prince William & Duchess Kate met First Nations & locals living a far more care-free life on land & floating communities while dedicating The Great Bear Rainforest To The Queenās Commonwealth Canopy on behalf of British Columbian's earlier this year. (My dream would be to live up there only reachable by float plane - with a guest BnB. The 1963 NFB Film "The Water Dwellers" is s short vintage documentary synopsis of a āvanishing breed of individualists,ā - showing these aquatic nomadsĀ - whose life back then less whim & more necessity. #Built on #floats,Ā a communityās homes & businesses canĀ easily be moved from one spot of coast to another, following the needs of one's own living situation & livelihood. See: https://www.nfb.ca/film/water_dwellers/ #video #videosketchbook #floathouse #floathome #floatinghouse #livingonthewater #waterdweller (at Smallstudio Design)

I dreamed that i was eating cob salad off a computer screen but the site it was on kept backing me out of the food so id be clicking away popups and stuff and trying to navogate back to the page i could eat off of but each time i got back to it, it stayed open shorter. Worse than putlockers.
I dreamed my dad climed into a bed i was in and tried to molest me and i was struggling and saying no but it was like i was doing it in a super narcoleptic state, like my brain was interpreting me being asleep and immobile as the reality of the dream, but i got away and was like, well it finally happened this is awkward. We discussed it briefly? Then i kept finding my old orange cat and he was like, nonverbally conversing about how he felt we were a couple, and holding him felt like, being with someone who feels very romantically about you and loves you very much.
I dreamed i went back to a marshy dock area in the weird coastal place crossed with the weird upisland place, and i had let a dingy of mine sink, and i went into the water to get it out and the water was the perfect temperature but then i saw someone else had already salvaged it. There was something about living in a floathome.

Do Floating Homes have any advantages or disadvantages?
Buying a floating home can be an overwhelming experience. It can also be an exciting moment. However, floating homes do have their advantages and disadvantages. Today, we discuss the same:
Advantages
It is common misconception that houseboats and floating homes are similar. However, this is not true. Unlike houseboats, floating homes are moored to the dock and offer a calm and serene living experience. If you have ever spent life living in a houseboat, you know how much additional cost it can incur. The major part of this additional cost comes from gasoline. Additionally, the floating home community is quite lovable, pleasant and cares for each other.
Living on a floating home will show you how life feels like when waking up to the beautiful sight of the sun rising in the morning. Life on a floating home allows you to watch local animals right from your homeās deck. Also, living in a floating home allows you to use the large water body to become your swimming pool.
In some Canadian states, floating homes are not considered as real property. Thereby taxes may be levied on it. However, the taxes levied on floating homes are comparatively cheaper than real properties.
Disadvantages
There are also certain disadvantages to buying a floating home and it is very important to be prepared for them. Living life on floating homes also becomes boring with time. You will also find yourself getting tired and irritated when walking up and down the ramp, carrying those groceries and garbage to and fro from your floating home.
Floating homes also face storage scarcity issues. Living in floating homes can also rack up bills such as mooring fees, monthly electricity, water, sewage, and other utilities.
The experience of living in floating house is similar to that of living in home on land but at the same time very different.
