Just my slightly inebriated opinion.
The main thing is that I'm looking for a place to stay, on the water, rather than a means of conveyance. I already have a pontoon boat on a lift right next to where the house will be.

There is far more square footage on the floating home than on a boat. Probably three times more. And it's a real home with a real flushing toilet vs a marine head, a real kitchen instead of something that's so cramped it is a pain to use, etc.

Having the thing towed to where the bottom work will be done is not a deal breaker, at least not to me.
