A boat is <i>&quot;a hole in the water, into which you throw money&quot;</i>, so a big boat is a big hole in which you throw lots of money.<p>I don&#x27;t know this ship, but given that it was built around 1950, chances are that the builders used asbestos for isolation.<p>That means that, even if the ship were new, it would cost millions to make it suitable for almost any use.<p>For an example, see <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.m.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;SS_Rotterdam" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.m.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;SS_Rotterdam</a>. The English page doesn&#x27;t say it, but restoration of that ship to its original state cost over €100M.
