A BOAT OR A BLOCK OF FLATS – YOU DECIDE

A BOAT OR A BLOCK OF FLATS – YOU DECIDE

Its only just March and we could be closing off this years competition to find the boat that most resembles a block of flats. The vessel above was sent in by an anonymous reader and has to be the winner, I can’t see it being bettered.

But in this PC world we will let you all decide – vote below.

The 2nd question today woodys is how far from the dock would you venture as a passenger? And to those that know the vessel – yes I know its not a woody – its a swimming pool eg concrete. On a serious note – its a liquidation sale – $1 reserve – cheapest man cave ever.

INPUT ex TONY SIMPSON – photo below of Kiwa around launching. Built in ’70s by the gentleman pictured, Dennis Twist. Built in his backyard. The whole superstructure was rebuilt 2003 for America Cup viewing.
