This is a liveaboard blog. At least I'd hoped for it to be one - "life aboard s/v Eolian" is what it says up there in the header. In my posts I often try to give the liveaboard viewpoint, and try to accentuate how that differs from life ashore.
People frequently stumble across this site by doing a search for "living aboard a boat in Puget Sound", or "live aboard Puget Sound", or something similar. That would seem to be a good thing - they are ending up here, after all.
Unfortunately, that search seems to always return them possibly the single worst example of the living aboard experience: the tongue-in-cheek liveaboard simulator post. You can try it yourself! There it is, at #3 (or, at least it was before this post went up). Usually that is enough to scare them right off. The blog, that is - I hope that post has not scared anyone off from considering living aboard a boat. But I fear that it may very well have done so.
So - what might I do (short of sending money, of course) to get Google, Yahoo and Bing to return something other than that fateful post to someone looking for live aboard info? Perhaps I could put up a post that includes the words "living", "aboard", "Puget", and "Sound" in the title?
Maybe that would work.
