What happens when you have a seacock fail? Will your tenants know how to identify which seacock failed and how to turn it off? What systems will be affected if you close that seacock and how will they be damaged if you don't deactivate them?

Living on a boat requires a different code of conduct and you don't want people without that experience living aboard—they'll hurt the boat and do more to harm the value than you'll be able to collect.
That's a lot of seacock.
