I do freelance / contract work in IT and marine/boat stuff. I live on anchor for about $2000 / yr, that’s the cost of replacing ground tackle (anchor chain lines parts plus some extra$). No rent.
I fish/crab/lobster, but it’s not enough for full-time subsistence.
At anchor, lock it up, have a neighbor look after it, pop a fresh prepaid SIM into the camera, but that’s only like once a year I do this and ‘flyin’. I stipulate only a certain amount of fly-ins a year.
I do primarily remote work, my current employer is based in France and anything I do for work marine wise is local, unless I’m helping with a delivery.
But if I had a 9-5 brick & mortar job, I would just leave & lock the boat, take a 10-20 minute dinghy ride in to shore and tie up / lock up at a public dock (some have a small fee).
Do you have an income? I’m just curious how this works. Do you catch most of your food?

Where can you put your boat while you do contract work?
