Rent a houseboat in Singapore, possible?
Hi.
Im moving to Singapore soon. Want to rent a hosue boat like you can do in Hong Kong but having trouble findin any alternatives.
Cant have a rent that is off the charts, just a regular living for a single male.
Any ideas?

Raffles Marina is at the extreme westernmost tip of the island, and pretty much the remotest possible location in mainland Singapore -- it's a good 10-15 min by taxi to the nearest MRT station.slupen wrote:So Raffles Marina it is. How is the location in relation to a subway station or is a car a must?

Careful barney, I know two, newly-single guys who lived on their boats...
Slupen, there are many paradoxes in Singapore, but one of them is until very recently, water front property held no special value (if you could find it). I bet within 5 years there will be more and more houseboats for rent.

According to a friend, who has his boat at Sentosa, it is technically illegal to live on a boat in Singapore, but since it's something only the rich can afford it's mostly tolerated. All boats must be anchored in (expensive) marinas and you do need an additional residential address, where you're registered and reachable (this cannot be the boat).
Since it's illegal, nobody in his right mind would rent his/her boat out to somebody else. But buying a boat big enough for (spartan) living is cheaper than a condo!
