It's not a pretty boat, but not ungly. Functional I would call it.
Wasn't til I scrolled down on reading that I saw how high/tall it was.

If you're going to spend that kind of money I'd rather have something prettier.

Exactly. It would only ever stay on that lake for it's life, so without having to worry about open seas the owner decided to maximise floor area. It is ugly though.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

So before it was ugly but mobile, now it's ugly and can't be moved. I don't think they thought that through.

Actually reminds me much more of a paddle steamer, just without the paddle on the back.
