Hmmm... While the boat weight is given, no total vehicle weight w/boat is given. Seems like the front axle assembly is being asked to do a LOT. Interesting that it would be let go for only $21K. Yeah, I know it's age and all that, but if the original list was over $100K and only 20-something were built, wouldn't that give it some sort of exclusivity factor? Still, it would have a very limited audience...

I would have to see the boat loading and unloading off the truck to believe it.

Oh, I like it. I even like that totally 80's high end stereo setup. haha. That 260 mercruiser needs to find the bottom of the lake for a 502.

That thing used to live down the street from me, the guy used it to promote his bar (which went belly up a few months ago), I think the feds seize it. He used it mainly as a "party barge" limo around the area. It was/is really rough, always sat outside etc. Neat concept, but not $21k neat IMO.

If you saw this in the middle of the lake you'd have no idea it was a camper. I dig the idea that it handles like a v-hulled boat instead of a floating motorhome
