Ever wanted to purchase an aircraft carrier? Here's your chance!



HMS Invincible is for sale by tender. Laid down in 1973 at Vickers Shipbuilding, Barrow-in-Furness, she was completed in 1980. She is currently stable for tow, subject to buyer confirmation.

Isabella: Oh, it's such a beautiful yacht. What's it name?
Carter: Its name? [Isabella nods] USS STRONGER THAN SUPERMAN BATMAN AND THE INCREDIBLE HULK COMBINED.
Isabella: The USS STRONGER THAN SUPERMAN BATMAN AND THE INCREDIBLE HULK COMBINED? Funny. The name on the back was the Red Dragon.
Carter: The Red Dragon?
Isabella Yes. Because this is my friend's yacht. And this is his party.
Carter Your's friend yacht? Man, All these yachts look just alike these days. I knew something was wrong when my key didnt work.

Ha...you get to buy about 1/2 an aircraft carrier. No engines, and I notice, no pumps...so it takes on water.

Then I need to buy my own armaments.

Would be sick to build a half pipe on that, awesome for parties too. I could think of many ideas why one would want a personal aircraft carrier.

I'm in for a group buy.

Auto-cross on the flight deck, living quarters and everything else we could ever need below deck. Only problem is we would have to talk to each other in person everyday..

You going to tie a rope around your waste and pull it around the ocean? The ship has no engines.
