Got to say, when you look at these pictures, it sure was a monumental amount of work. It's too bad he did not build something on land with a foundation of concrete instead of water. The expected life-span would have been a lot longer.

One might argue that it's already surpassed it's expected life-span! :lol:

That's because it hasnt sailed anywhere.Only towed around by littleFH
. Now HR has to wait untill his court apearances are done with. Will be interesting to see if it makes it to a warmer climate before the winter. Can get cold in Sanfran.

there are no reported pics of sitings of the sails up.. for all we know that cheap corner cutting bastard doesnt even have sails...

The design itself looks nice. I'd like to see that built correctly (with paint)

does anyone think it is for real:

is HR really selling it or is it someone playing a joke on him?

The price certainly is a joke.

The text seems real enough, but the pictures are all the recon ones people have taken and posted. Which would seem to indicate one of the following:

1) It's legit and he appreciates all the pics people have taken (which also means he's following the followers online), OR

2) It's a joke by someone else.

I'm surprised it's still floating, and still don't think it will for long, but I do have a certain respect for the effort and money he's put into it.

oh wow i have not had a laugh that good all day..

I'm not convinced this is a real ad, either. The pictures are all shots that have been posted publicly in the past, and are from odd locations. If it were actually him selling, wouldn't he include some detail about the inside of the boat, for example? There is no detail about the engines included, systems included, or internal details like number of staterooms or detail about the galley. Just seems like it could be a hoax posting.

looks real to me

Sounder · **Posted:** Sat Nov 23, 2013 9:20 am

I saw that too. You are not going to sell an unfinished homemade boat for $80k without extensive photos and very detailed information. The listing is removed now too with no bids.

HR could be completely outta money and has to sell to survive. if it stays where it is it will be worthless by the end of the winter.

He hasnt posted anything on SA is a long time now. it could be bullcrap but I am thinking he is desperate now
