“Stay at the Queen Malesso. Make Yourself at Home”
Built as a 49 passenger glass-bottom transfer vessel for Cocos Island resort. Operated until sinking in 1976 during typhoon Pamela. Upon being raised to the surface, she was deemed uncertifiable for commercial operations. She was bought and taken into Sumay Cove. She was converted into a 2- bedroom houseboat.
Sold to the present owner in 2004, she was moved to Harbor of refuge where she stayed until being relocated back to Merizo in 2011 after being gone for 35 years. (The Flying Houseboat on YouTube)
