I think the lower portion needs to be a hot tub.

David Howarth's Spanish Armada is exceedingly entertaining as as most books by that author,Tristan Jones first four books are close to being a masterpiece that you can't put down despite his hyperbole.At least 50 years since publication for both authors for these works but they still "hold water".

Sister has one of these on a small Maine lake. Electric outboard. Awning in the middle of the table. The mighty PICNIK. Ideally suited for a lazy afternoon, on the water, maybe swim a little, visit a neighboring island. Lunch and laze.

Tied to a dock, yes. With a motor, never.

Looks like a weight distribution nightmare...how do delicately tell your guests, perhaps you two shouldn't be sitting next to each other at the "table"?

Re that floating picnic table: Well, it's a table. So in the right place, why not? I'm envisioning a quiet lake as a good spot especially with a cabin/cottage as a home base. But lose the gas motor to an electric trolling motor. And I'm going to guess that this powered picnic would be fun once, maybe twice. However all one has to do is remove the rustable wheels, leave the motor in the shed, then tow the platform out to a suitable anchor spot to serve as a swim platform. Not that use would get a lot of traction especially with the kids.
