Um...am I to understand from the specs above ("living space") that this is *not* a functional scale model, but one which is actually intended to be operated as an inhabited recreational vessel?

I think that's correct. It looks pretty nice inside too. This thing rocks!

It is pretty darn cool. Hell, I'd be proud if I could build a rowboat, let along a 110' motor vessel.
