:facepalm:

Looks like something stolen from an amusement park that would be used for a water themed ride.

Wonder if anybody has actually ponied up for this eye sore?
For that kind of money, you could buy one sweet pontoon boat. Then equip it with all that over-stuffed inner-tube has to offer. It would be a heck of allot more comfortable, and probably have a good amount of cash left over for gas. Best part about that is when your done with dinner, you could actually take it out some place since it would go more then two and a whopping half miles an hour.

Re: $50,000 floating BBQ

I expected to see a yacht on fire when I clicked the link. I'm with RogersJetboat...a pontoon with all those ammenities and a heap more for less than $50,000. Of course it won't have the Hammacher Schlemmer seal of approval :facepalm:

The heck with this thing all together....

If you just so happen to have an extra million kicking around in your trust fund, you can have your very own genuine PT boat;

Imagine all the dinner party's you could throw on that for your friends from the country club!

Wonder if you could trailer it with a Bentley? :D

This is how folks do the same thing around here. A little less fancy, I suppose :)

Two high dollar items from Hammacher Schlemmer and neither includes a nose hair trimmer. What's up with that?

On that thisiswhyimbroke.com site they have a "hoverbike". Hoverbike applications? "Power-line inspection". Genius!! :rolleyes:

and when one of the guests has to pee....

One of the worst designed "boats" I've ever seen--a round sofa boat.

Re: $50,000 floating BBQ

Surely the price is a misprint? I can't imagine that thing costing $5000 to build. For $50000 you could get a nice pontoon w a much nicer/larger grill, plush seating, big dining table, fridge, enclosed head etc,etc, and be able to cruise and enjoy the waterways w twice the capacity and much more room to enjoy the company of friends than that useless, silly, floating donut. The table looks to small to serve more than 4 w/o elbowing each other or spilling/knocking over drinks and dishes. I see no way 10 could eat at that table comfortably. The seat seems to be gutter shaped so one spilled drink would soak all butts not quickly lifted off the seat! It also looks like it would be "exciteing" to board and unload especially after an evening of wineing and dineing.

It's not a misprint; it's for people who have more dollars than they do sense.

Re: $50,000 floating BBQ

A few of those would be perfect in one of the pools, or maybe the owners personal hottub, on the 600', half a bizzillion $ yacht shown in a recent post. I see a design flaw...........how does the chef, server, butler etc. fit into the thing? Surely someone who would by it would not be cooking/cleaning up their own meals.
