Default Would you go long term cruising?

I have some friends who are full-time cruisers that aren't hermits
living in a cave.

He's a card-carrying licensed electrician. She's a former IRS agent
and tax accountant. Both of these skills are in great demand wherever
the boat happens to be docked, so what they do is cruise until they've
had their fill then pull into a nice port somewhere and GO TO WORK for
from weeks to months, even over a year in Hawaii. He drops into the
local IBEW union hall, shows his card, and has wired up some
impressive buildings across the planet. Wherever he finds a contract
to work under, she drops by the local tax preparer's office,
especially this time of year, and shows her credentials, getting a job
for however long she can stay on the spot.

When the jobs peter out or they simply get fed up working and the
money pot has been refilled.....off they go to find more
adventure.....
