Welcome aboard our web site "shakedown cruise". We are working hard to become "shipshape" in the blogging department, so we hope you will enjoy our first few posts.

Come back soon and you will find a series of posts sharing all the "ins and outs" of living on a Willamette River floating home in Portland, Oregon! Your blog author has lived and worked on a Willamette River floating home since 1995, so there will be plenty to write about to satisfy even the most curious floating-home-dweller-to-be. We plan to share:

Information about what it's like to live on a floating home on the Willamette River.
Information resources prospective floating home dwellers need to know about before buying a floating home.
Willamette River floating home market updates-useful for prospective buyers and sellers.
Floating home construction information.
Information about the Willamette River and Willamette River upcoming events.

I'm looking foward to answering your questions and helping you gather all the information you need about this incredible floating home lifestyle!

If you have a question, please contact me directly, and I will be happy to help in any way I can.

Thanks for stopping by!
