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.




Only silos the held the earliest missiles. Newer silos have to be
filled in, as they are decommissioned. More BS from international
treaties.
