PHANTASTIC VEHICLES

"At home in the entire World" is the headline under which the housing supplement of Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung, dated November 11. 2001, presents the newest fantastic vehicle to its readership. The vehicle in question is "ResidenSea", luxus liner and houseboat in one, with 110 holiday residences and 88 apartments for guests offered for sale. Also the prices for the domiciles are fantastic, reaching from US$680.000 to US$3,9 million. The services in return are gorgeous: "On board exists an entire small world of luxury, a market with all kinds of delicacies, shops, a medical center, traveller's agency, hair dresser and beauty parlour (.......). Even golf players do not need to leave the ship".
Because the concept is so fantastic and the buyers are already queuing up, a second ship is already being planned. Like that, the oceans of the world will in future be navigated by floating holiday residencies and by luxurious houseboats, sailing from port to port and never reaching a destination, because they simply do not have one.
