Just bumping this:
I've seen a Sadler 32 - listed as having hot water and a shower. The shower is basically the tap in the head which can be pulled out. It has hot water too via immersion heater, I think.
At Liverpool Marina, apparently the shower block is terrible (and berthing is not cheap there either!), so if I spent time on the boat I'd really need to use the shower. It seems that consensus says showering on boats is a bad idea.
So would the main problems of condensation be controllable with:
Honestly, when I'm cruising, it matters not to me about showering, on mountain trips sometimes I go a week without one. Getting a bucket shower in the cockpit sounds fine to me but not at 7am in the morning on a February morning...
Other aspects of living aboard seem fine to me - lack of space, proper bed, no freezer, etc. but the shower area is one thing I must find a solution to. Any further advice welcome !

So would the main problems of condensation be controllable with:
- Shore Power (to heat water and use dehumidifier)
- Unlimited water from Marina (for the shower)
