| 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. http://www.edisposals.com/is-bin/INT...mpTo=OfferList |

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..
