In this episode of the podcast, Bela Musits interviews Merrill Charette - who co-founded an online marketplace for marine-related services called Shipshape.pro and is also the host of a podcast called SHIPSHAPE - International Ocean Insights.  Merrill also lives on his boat in Boston for 12 months of the year.  So he has a good understanding of live-aboard life in the cold weather.  We had a great conversation.
