For those who have ever wondered how water, power, internet, septic, etc work on a floating cabin (or are wondering now! 😉)... Here's how all our basic utilities are installed + how they function differently in some ways, & similarly in others, to traditional homes on land. We have a special utility to highlight on our boathouse this week as well - new solar panel install hollaaa! SO excited to upgrade our off-grid solar power capacity to 1.6kwh as compared to our 570wh before 🙌

Thanks for Keeping Afloat with us & hope y'all enjoy!
