are you talking real time or scenario? in a scenario i would not worry about it in real time all you would have to do is move from inlet to inlet and that is only if the coast guard came around and said anything, i know of ppl who live on their boats for the summer in the same spot and do not get hassled.but different places have different rules
WE - It's no problem to sail a boat. Just put a "For Sail" sign on it.:D
That was just wrong Rick,funny,but wrong:D
The Fed's via the Coast Guard say, do not block navigable waters, and don't polute. If you don't do those two you can stay in one spot till h*ll freezes, they don't care.Quote:

My idea is that one would be at the head of a bay, next to a small fresh water stream, and you could use a 100' garden hose to gravity feed water to the barge. You could have a honey bucket on board and a hand dug hole 400' from shore to dump it into. Or a outhouse on land well back from shore.
You could move using the anchor line and a small runabout.
I would think this idea along the inside passage would be the ideal. Protected from the ocean by the barrier islands, constant temperature and don't have to worry about ice. Plenty of fresh water streams. You may have hit upon something here, Hopeak.
you would be protected from ocean swells but you would be exposed to some seriously gnarly tidal currents. it's still a tradeoff. on the other hand, the inlets around the passage are almost invariably rich feeding grounds for bait-fish, and hence provide good fishing, many marine mammals such as seal and sea lion and many of the islands harbr sitka deer and bear, who don't see many people up close :D i still think you guys are right that it would be a great approach.
Sounds better than moving to Northern Idaho and fending off the so called golden hords or is it herds, Ha-Ha.
Everybody in America will be heading to the ranch of the Godfather of survival.
Maybe I'll just go underground and hideout in the huge sewer system and steal, take, plunder and pillage what I need.
i wouldn't call my self godfather most folks just call me sir.
O.K. I did my thinking outside of the Box. Now it is your turn, Really.....Really what are some other ideas. This whole current SHTF survivalisum mentality can be traced to a very few books, devoid of original thought. I think the key is: Where is there food? Kansas, large lakes, etc..... If everyone (three hundred and sixty-five MILLION) runs to Canada and Alaska that won't work. Better to find pockets all over to head to.
Let'em all go to Canada and Alaska, then I got the rest of the world for myself ;)
Well. It's not very original but like I've said. Clean water, protection and food are some of your primary concerns. All these folks are going to abandon their homes, pack what they can in the car and bug out. That's 40-50 gallons of water per home (hot water tank). Every semi and train will be parked. I'm sure we'll scrounge enough food from them to keep going. As for protection, where better than the place you know? All the corn that's on the ground in the Midwest means a good crop every year. Plus all the factory farms for tomatoes and other vegies that will volunteer to come up.
The show Beo mentioned on another thread (What Happens After We are Gone) said the Hoover Damn would continue producing electricity for two years after man kind was gone. The hydro generators would just keep spinning.
hah, that would be awesome. They keep making electricity until everything just overpowers and blows (I know it won't actually blow up, but I like to think it will)
I think most people would stay where they are though
wow, imagine if some alien race like landed here...and and...like we were all wiped out and and....all these tv sets and computers were still running....never mind, I have to go get another baggie of mushrooms.
Shrooms dude, been snort'n em all night.
So that's what those chunky things are that are hangin' from your nose. Dude!
O.K. Why....as honestly as you can answer why would you like that. I truely would like to understand why that would please you......?Quote:
