ECO ECO ECOLOGICAL & ECONOMICAL

FLOATING HOMES

FULLY EQUIPPED (plus optional engines)

Ranch 44'
1-story w/loft.
On view in Seattle.
From $195K

• Ecologically-friendly: Dbl or triple-pane windows; High “R-rate” insulation, good for tropics or Alaska; Low VOC paint; Long-life metal roof; Replenishable woods (e.g., bamboo floors); Wood-looking shingles & siding actually (surprise!) recycled cement, so bug & rot-proof, and low-maintenance.

• Economical: BIG SAVINGS!

NO — costly land purchase, site preparation, or yard work NO — property taxes (in most states)

NO — condo maint. fees (standard dockage = $500 p/mo)

• These are Coast Guard certified vessels. So, unlike many floating homes, they’re dockable in many marinas—& designed to fit into slips their own length!

• Catamaran advantage: Our 2 rugged, aluminum hulls (much stronger than FG, with 3 water-tight chambers each), don’t suffer the “rock-n-roll” common to homes built on single, barge-type hulls.

• 2nd-Boat Friendly: Keep your cruising vessel, or fi shing-or ski-boat tied alongside your Eco-Sea Cottage.

• More Fun! Swim, fish & kayak off your front porch.

ABOVE ESC’s are not rough-water cruising vessels, but, like a kayak or canoe, in fl at-water conditions your ESC can travel many miles . . . and do 4-to- 7 knots, thanks to its rigid, aluminum cat’ hulls, and 10-to-60-HP outboards (optl.). RIGHT The two-floor models allow for 1 or 2 added bedrooms, another bathroom, dormers, & a 2nd-fl oor deck.
