And the unconverted cargo trailer is sold. That’s the end of a brief but memorable era for us. We had some fun times and wonderful adventures out of the cargo trailer in its converted form. After one last fire in the wood stove and a week up on Craigslist, I finally closed the book on [...]

Unconverted Cargo Trailer

Sadly it is time to move on from the converted cargo trailer that has been at times a boat house, an office, and a home. Since moving to Seattle there’s been no time to use it, and no space in which to keep it. Recognizing that this project has come to its end is no [...]

Here’s a shot inside the trailer one night, before bed, during stealth mode. (When we were parked in a quiet, secret, location…)
Remembering Summer (in Maine)

This is my favorite campground. I practically lived here in August, writing my thesis by the power of the sun inside my little abode in this converted cargo trailer. This is the Camden Hills Campground in Camden, Maine. A wonderful place to camp, and an amazing harbor to sail around. This was heaven for a [...]
Life in a Converted Cargo Trailer
Posted in Nomadics, tagged Converted Cargo Trailer on August 2, 2011 | 4 Comments »
It’s surprisingly comfortable, at times, especially if it’s not too hot. Unfortunately this summer has brought a fair amount of hot and humid weather on the East coast, but that has prompted us to travel North and visit some cooler areas in the Northeast. It’s amazing how much you can get from a small space [...]
Trailer with Fireplace

It’s not much use now (given that it’s 87 deg F and humid), but during colder months, and in cooler climates, having a wood-burning stove inside the trailer is key. On rainy or snowy days, or really cold mornings, there’s nothing like a fire to heat up the whole trailer. Here’s a video of the [...]

Inside and out, that is. Just finished the installation of two 85 Watt solar panels on the trailer’s roof. This was the last piece in the electrical system which is now operational and ready to support my power demands on some up-coming adventures. The system is 12 Volts, of course, and relies on an old [...]

This project is one that I’ve planned for years and it’s finally coming together now. The concept is to convert a standard, v-nose cargo trailer into a mobile boathouse and living space. It turns out, that with my 15′ sailboat on its trailer, I can actually wheel the entire boat inside and transport it within [...]
