Monty Bhurjee, who has spent the last three years living aboard and renovating Hippo, told Insider he removed the bathroom to make room for a walk-in closet. Bhurjee said there are communal toilets and showers that are cleaned daily a one-minute walk away.

Bhurjee said he has a lot of clothes and doesn't regret the transformation because he spends a lot of time away from home. He thinks if you have an active lifestyle, you wouldn't mind either.

The boat's engine hasn't been run in three years, Jam Press reported, so if you want to take it for a ride, you'll have to get it checked out first.
