Stumbled across this pic. I can't tell is it real or not.

I would love to take this on a 3 hour tour with Mary Ann!!

Can you imagine the looks backing this down a boat ramp?

Seen it many times on facebook and other sites.

It was for sale the first time I saw it on line.
That was a few years ago and it needed quite a bit of mech work at the time. Front wheel drive is actually 4WD without the rear system.
I bet it is/was a bitch in traffic. Couldn't take it up TOD that's for sure.

Waste of a good van.

I mean it’s probably just a cut away van to begin with and obviously heavily modified but the idea is really cool.

Kind of looks like Spaceman's limo van.

This one ended up in a junk yard

So sad to see that bad boy rotting away in a junk yard.

Guess this gives new meaning to "Party Barge" on wheels!

Wondering what the weight of that monster would be loaded up and going down the road? Hope those rear axels have great brakes!

I saw a video of it in action. He backs down the boat ramp to the back axle and the boat backs into the water.

The last video link ^ if you watch it, the first Boaterhome appears to have some sag in the frame. Don't know why it wouldn't with that kind of weight with the frame stretched out so far.

The 2nd Boaterhome in the same video link above, the motor on that boaterhome! How is that van not doing a wheelie going down the road?

What, 30 of them made or so, and sounds like only 2 (his in the video) are the only ones in decent shape. Wonder what he charges for Boaterhome rental to take a group down the Vegas strip?

Answers my questions that I had, is it real? YEP, and real expensive too I am guessing....
