The perfect tender?

Iguana boats for sale on YachtWorld are listed for a swath of prices from $310,825 on the moderate end of the spectrum, with costs all the way up to $595,000 for the more lavish yachts on the market today.

Would you buy one?

Tesla founder Elon Musk buys James Bond's Lotus Esprit submarine car

and

Elon Musk Bought 007's Lotus For $1 Million From A Couple That Paid $100

Nicknamed “Wet Nellie,” the car was used for underwater scenes, so when it sold in 2013 it had no wheels, only “articulated fins.”
It also couldn’t drive on land, but it did actually work as a submarine, with ballast tanks to make diving possible.
The car also featured “a bank of four propellers” in the back of the vehicle that let it move underwater while being powered by electric motors in a water-tight compartment.

Elon Musk had apparently been eyeing this particular Lotus since childhood.
“It was amazing as a little kid in South Africa to watch James Bond in The Spy Who Loved Me drive his Lotus Esprit off a pier, press a button, and have it transform into a submarine underwater,” says Musk.
“I was disappointed to learn that it can’t actually transform.
What I’m going to do is upgrade it with a Tesla electric powertrain and try to make it transform for real.”
 
Saw one of those boats, completely broken by Colonsay sand.... tyre off,another wheel off etc. Would have kept a couple of guys busy with shovels for a day, must be great having staff

From memory, there was a steering wheel (or two) on a stalk at the bow. This is what had broken (or at least the tyre on one side, and the wheel on the other. Could easily have been another manufacturer.
