The new Nomad houseboat is a 25-foot model with an aluminum V-hull with a retractable cabin top that lowers about two feet over the lower part of the cabin. This model is very timely because the boat is considerably easier and less costly to tow when lowered on its trailer and it is also easier to store because of its low profile. With a 135hp outboard, the boat can attain speeds in excess of 30 mph, handling like a small cruiser. Easy to trailer, launch, retrieve and store, the retractable Nomad is ideal when you want to be on the water without the hassles of a bigger boat or slip rental. Plus, priced at $69,900 that includes boat motor and trailer, it's easier on your wallet too. Nomad Houseboats, Inc. can arrange financing for qualified buyers anyplace in the United States for up to 15 years. For more information visit www.nomadhouseboats.com.
