You have to be joking, it is a 100 ton boat

Chances are high that the person interested in doing something like
that would allow it to reside in whatever body of water it is already
floating, don't you think? But with an 80T capacity, building a house
on top would be entirely possible. It's not entirely unlikely. Hell,
people buy and retrofit ICBM missle silos into homes now.

There are some awfully big houseboats out there. Here's one with a
helicopter landing pad:

Again, I do not know if the weather on the great lakes is conducive to this
sort of living.
