Gary White has been a houseboater for almost 20
years and he and his wife Jeri make their home in
Frankfort, Ky. According to Jeri, it was her husband
that introduced her to the world of living on the
water in 2004 when the two met.
"I have been hooked on houseboating ever since!"
Jeri says.
Gary's first houseboat purchase was in 1992, when
he bought a 47-foot by 12-foot steel-hull houseboat.
Then in 2001 he launched The Odyssey, a 90-foot by
19-foot luxury boat as a charter houseboat on Lake
Cumberland, Ky. While he also made use of the boat
for personal reasons, Gary made the boat available
for overnight trips and dinner cruises.
