As an investment - fantastic value.
As a piece of art - fantastic value.
As something uniquely fun - fantastic value (depending on said buyer)
As a boat - rubbish!

Cheap at twice the price for something so unique and interesting. Not to mention beautiful, just look at that wooden hull assembled from tiny strips.

The thing I like most about it, is it seems like they've taken a car and replaced the chassis with a hull.

It's petrol, so the consumption will be even worse!

The result was a 12-cylinder, 4,500cc, V12 Ferrari engine - the same as can be found in the Type 375 Grand Prix car.

Is she actually back in commission then? I thought she was still in bits awaiting somebody with deep pockets to bring her back to life?

Amazing old thing though!
