For Sale on eBay: Fake Island

Seriously, at the current high bid of $222,322, this thing is a steal for any San Franciscan. When was the last time you saw anything in The City at that price? It has a lighthouse-shaped view tower, a restaurant belowdecks appointed in the finest nautical kitsch and a palm-tree shaded sand beach. The brainchild of one Forbes Kiddoo, a houseboat builder and all around kooky guy, it currently resides in leased moorage at Pier 39.

So don't miss out on this opportunity to own a piece of San Francisco, uh, history. If you're worried about the maintenance costs, one look at the menu and you'll realize that the potential income from bilking European tourists is incalcuable. SFist's dream, of course, is to shanghai some strippers and take this baby out into international waters for some lawless fun. Wait, somebody call the Minnesotta Vikings!

Thanks to Phillip for the tip!
