If Captain Hook was your favourite childhood villain, you’d rather listen to a sea shanty than a top-40 single, and you’ve ever thought that owning a pirate ship was a sound investment, then this piece of real estate currently for sale in Vancouver’s False Creek might just be for you.

No, not in the False Creek neighbourhood, in the creek itself.

For $549,000, you can live your seafaring dreams by being the proud owner of this popular piece of the waterfront scenery near Granville Island.

According to the listing, the 890-sq-ft structure is a “successful turn-key business.”

Yes, it’s a business, not a home.

Still, it is somewhat enticing.

“Profitable since its inception, Pirate Adventures has been a staple on Granville Island,” the listing reads. “This is a great opportunity for someone in the hospitality industry, entertainment industry or retired and looking for seasonal income.”

There’s also “lots of room for growth as current operator only runs during the summer season.”

The pirate ship alone is apparently valued at $250,000 and the business “comes with a storefront and marina boat slip currently located on Granville Island.”
