  Patrick Swayze was one of the hottest actor of the 80's and 90's, since he first caught the worlds attention in the hit classic, The Outsiders, in 1983.   A lot of memorabilia builds up over a couple dozen films. Swayze died in 2009 from pancreatic cancer and this past week his widow Lisa auction hundreds of his belonging at a Los Angeles auction house.

Shel Silverstein’s Enchanted House Boat!

For many of us there was no poet who better captured childhood like Shel Silverstein and his humpy bumpy rhymes about everything from animal arks to loneliness.  So what better place for him to call home, but a one man arc, ready for the sea! The bohemian one-bed, one-bath Sausalito houseboat could be yours for just $390,000!

Sausalito artist Chris Roberts had even previously christened the boat with an ideal, Silverstein-esque pirate ship name: Evil Eye.

After Silverstein died in 1999 (by then the houseboat was one of several properties he owned), photographer/artist Larry Moyer (a friend of Silverstein’s) became skipper of Evil Eye until his own death in March of 2016.
