It seems the Hot-tub boat above isn't a one-off stroke of Genius/Stupidity (delete as applicable)

Could be good, go for a sail down the river, and sail your model round inside the boat....  {-)

We have Saunas on Boats here.... Normally a regular wooden sauna (read shed) mounted on an old timber barge with an outboard for propulsion
