A 37-foot Formosa ketch, built in Singapore in the 1960s and currently moored in Vitória, Brazil, serves as a full-time residence for an oceanographer and environmental researcher.8:57 The vessel, named *Careba*, features a ketch rig that simplifies sail handling and balance.9:34 The owner maintains the boat by hauling it out at a local fishing colony in Praça do Suá, which allows for cost-effective maintenance compared to traditional marinas.12:02 Living aboard requires a minimalist approach, including strict management of 300 liters of freshwater and organized storage for tools, electronics, and spare parts.17:51 The owner emphasizes that life on the water provides a direct perspective on marine pollution, particularly regarding water quality and industrial runoff.19:47 While the boat offers a low-impact lifestyle, the owner notes the lack of local infrastructure, such as floating piers, which complicates boarding for passengers.25:56 The vessel also functions as a platform for occasional charters and scientific observation.27:20
