    Ah, that makes sense. Hopefully there's access for taking walks there, it's beautiful.

    It looks pretty good even without the paint.

    Can't resist this one. Definitely not for me but...an amazing transformation of a houseboat! And only $399k

    Inside are all the luxuries and comforts of home. Totally transformed, the open-concept design includes a living room that opens onto one of the covered decks, a stunning kitchen with modern appliances, granite countertops and the same beautiful hardwood floors found throughout the living room and entry. Also on the main level is the master suite with ensuite bath and a second guest bath. A spiral stairway leads to a second loft bedroom.

    Based at a beautiful marina on the Manatee River in Palmetto, Florida, she is completely air-conditioned with large fans providing supplemental cooling for more moderate days. Travel and enjoy nights on the water — an eight-kilowatt generator keeps everything functioning normally. Motion-dish satellite TV antenna included!

    Powered by two Diamond Series Cummins Diesel engines, she is totally self-propelled and can be moved under her own power at about 6 knots. Famed Naval Architects Daniel J. Avoures and Associates designed and built the original ship. No detail was overlooked in crafting a vessel capable of holding up to 110 persons while providing safe and comfortable passage with maximum maneuverability. The home can edge right up to a dock or reception spot – no need for a dinghy!

    Weighing 33-tons, and measuring 30’ x 60’, the infrastructure of this low-maintenance all-fiberglass vessel is impressive. Floating on twin catamaran hulls, she has less resistance when moving through the water and can maintain steadiness while gliding through small waves. Rather than anchors, electric winches power steel beams that drop to steady the vessel in wind. This feature permits mooring in shallow waters as no keel is necessary.

    She is totally furnished with items shown in the pictures including a 65″ flat screen TV, leather furniture, outdoor seating and gas grill, plus a well-stocked kitchen. You can actually live aboard at the marina for $900 per month!

    A "houseboat" is a very apt description for this. :D
