It’s illegal but can be done. Depends more if your dock reports you. My dad and I used to stay in his boat parked in Villeneuve at the time, sometimes for weeks. No one gave a shit. Sometimes the dock guy would come drink with us.
Iʼm visualizing to camp on a dropstitch platform for one night during the summer. This already requires some headache in stealth organization…
Ships for residential purposes are prohibited in Switzerland.
I thought you wanted it for yourself, but no, you just want to rent them and pollute the docks and lake access for profit. No thanks.
The lakes are polluted enough, as is.
If you want this kind of stuffs legally go to the Netherlands, otherwise is your own risk.
Goodness gracious, next thing you will want a navy, to protect your houseboats. It’s a slippery slope.
1st world problems.
iirc its only legal, when you have a permanent home somewhere.
Legal in Switzerland? LMFAO
This guy is out on the lake every day even in the harshest of winter. Do not sure the living on a a boat applies.
Rule nr 1 in Switzerland:
If there is no law than it is forbidden.
In this cas there’s is a law and it is forbidden.
I would guess No
Of course not, why would anything even remotely cool be allowed in Switzerland?

Probably more of a r/askswitzerland question.
Though I imagine that it will be dependent on local regulations and won’t come cheap.
strictly illegal according to the Schwimmendewohnmoeglichkeitsundunterkunftsbundesverbotsgesetz of 1963.
Art. 96 of the [Schweizerische Binnenschiffahrtsverordnung](https://www.fedlex.admin.ch/eli/cc/1979/337_337_337/de#art_96) says:
