This made Bloomberg:

So now the world knows that "Kiihfuss and her husband, a pilot [...]" are paying a "[...] HK$63,000 monthly mortgage repayment on the houseboat [...]" plus mooring fees (which are quoted at HK$24k pm for a 60' boat) ...

"Regardless, living on the water has long appealed to those seeking an alternative to high-rise city life. Some companies even help to finance debenture purchases and provide boat mortgages. "

not sure what the strategy is here, engender or endanger sympathy from the masses? good thing no mention of stayaboards...
