A vagrant boat dweller who is technically homeless. Usually they exploit maritime laws to avoid paying moorage fees while living on a shitty old boat. See a bunch of douchbags on the willamette river in Portland, OR
Those dirty hoboaters on the east bank esplanade really ruin the public docks in town. Of course I'm kind of jealous they've figured out a rent free existence in Portland without squatting.
