Just about to finish up the purchasing process on a 2018 Shockwave 29KSGDX. First timer planning on living in it roughly 6 months out of the year, so figured go big...or go home.

Should be retiring from the Navy (28+ years and counting) sometime in the next 12 months and getting this part of the new adventure underway early!

Appreciate all the information that so many have already posted, it has already made this process easier.

There isn't a lot of wardrobe storage to live in it that length of time so you may want to look at ways to store clothes. Other than looks like a very nice RV. BTW thanks for your service.

Thank you.

I served on a submarine for a good portion of my career, so needless to say I am use to having minimal space. That being said, I am going to have to get very creative across the board to pull this off.

Welcome aboard, Richard.

Since you stated you are a first timer, this thread could be of benefit:

As you are about to retire, you may also find this thread of interest.
