When I think of a guy named “Bryce, ” that’s the type of guy I think of 😅

My second home is a boat. The slip is $3300 a year. Two beds, kitchen and bath. The best time of the year is when everyone else is gone. Its on a lake, not the ocean, but it is like having a 50, 000 private lake. Best time is at night. Nothing on earth compares to the stars. Food is great too, fresh wild fish is better than anything from a store.

Bryce has the right idea. I lived on a 38’ Carver in the Miami Beach marina back in the 90’s and had a blast. Life was never so simple and carefree, with extremely low overhead. Of course, I screwed it up, and bought another house, filled it with stuff I didn’t need, . It’s what humans do I guess. Congrats Bryce, enjoy every minute of it.

LOL, the parents got those two out of the house for a bargain!!

I like how they didn't even bother to clean up.

Hes literally from that show Too Hot To Handle and was full of himself. Still hasn't changed I see. But only thing I'd commend him on is saving money living in L.A

[SwitchbackXThunter]

I’m only here for that comments and I must say.... “they didn’t disappoint”! 🤣

[devonwelch]

This is like the equivalent of showing someone’s house, and saying they live there for only $400 a month because that’s what they pay in property tax.

OK, so this is BS. Slip rates in Marina del Rey for this boat would be a minimum of $1, 087/ month. There is a 50% live aboard fee which would add another $543, or a total of $1, 630/ month. Still cheap, but the waiting list is years long. Also, the Carver is a great boat to live on as it is so well laid out. However, the cheapest Carver 40 footer listed in the US is $94, 000, and it’s a real beater. Still pretty cheap, but let’s assume mommy and daddy don’t buy the boat for you, so that means a payment of about $2, 500/ month. There you have it, $4, 000 a month, the same as an apartment that you don’t have to empty the sewage tanks on every week.

This is deceptive: ask any dock master in Marina del Rey and they will tell you "No live aboards". That means someone paying to dock their boat can stay 3 days and 2 nights per week. If you are sneaking around (as I've known a few people to do), the dock master can call the Sheriff and site you for trespassing or "evict you". Believe me, the dock master in Basin D talks to the dock master in Basin A so word gets out and you may not be welcome at Marina del Rey.

both of these chaps would make even the dullest most boring day a party for their guests! I love the hospitality here.

So this is where he brings a new girl everyday😂

“He lives on a boat... I don’t know if that makes him rich or poor...” I think we just found out, sweetie.

Bryce seems like the chillest dude ever. Funny enough, he reminds me a LOT of this guy I know from back home (Kansas) who moved to LA. Birds of a feather lol

[superyachtchef]

So glad you clean things up for our visit!

Bryce reminds me of that college chad who never grew up.

[jasonedwardblood]

Ok there needs to be more content like this. Very hard to see living on a boat videos. I just bought a several million dollar 62 foot pershing and am really on the fence on living on it (in the med) so yeah im a little older and its just my wife and i i have ac satellite washer dryer plus everything normal. But this guy seems so happy on half of that on a smaller boat so YES thank you im glad that Bryce was willing to share. Great attitude.

[nah]

They seem really down to earth and like a fun friend group
