Houseboats

Houseboats and liveaboards

Houseboats are live-in boats and are typically large, flat-bottomed power boats with square sides and house-like characteristics. Built with emphasis placed on their living space, comforts and amenities as opposed to their efficiency as a boat. View our Guide on Houseboats.

What are houseboats?

Houseboats are larger size vessels frequently used for activities such as living aboard. These types of vessels can vary in size from 25 feet to 106 feet with an average length of 59 feet. They are built and assembled by a wide variety of boat makers with hull types including flat, modified vee, planing, displacement and other designs. Boat Trader currently has 349 houseboats for sale, including 7 new vessels and 342 used boats listed by both individuals and professional boat and yacht dealers across the country.

What are the best houseboats?

Some of the most popular designers of houseboats currently include: Gibson, Sumerset, Stardust Cruisers, Custom and Holiday Mansion. These builders produce houseboats models with inboard, inboard/outboard, outboard, outboard-4S and other propulsion systems, available in gas, diesel, electric and other fuel systems.

What are the most affordable houseboats?

Houseboats for sale on Boat Trader are listed for a variety of prices from a sensible $4,891 on the accessible end all the way up to $1,201,000 for the more lavish boat models. Models with more power can take motors up to a massive 2,160 horsepower, while the smallest utility models may have as modest as 60 horsepower engines on them (although the average motor size is 500 HP).

Why are houseboats popular?

Houseboats are popular for their moderate draft and exceptionally wide beam, attributes that make these boats perfect for living aboard. Houseboats are also popular boats for coastal, inshore and offshore boating.
