About ten years ago, someone was marketing something similar on the Tennessee and Mississippi rivers. This was a rectangular barge like vessel with a couple of hundred apartments that could be rented like a long term time share. There were three month, six months, year long rental rates. The vessel would relocate about every two or three weeks. I don’t think it went over too well since I haven’t heard anything since about 2012.
With 2 week ports of call like St. Louis and Memphis I can see why it wasn’t popular.
