You just met "The One Whose Name Must Not Be Spoken" in a Bangkok park. Seeing a 2-meter Asian Water Monitor (known scientifically as Varanus salvator) just 1 meter away is a true Jurassic Park moment in the middle of the urban jungle. But in Thailand, this giant reptile is more than just wildlife — it's a living superstition. Locals call them "Hia," a word so heavy with bad luck it's used as a forbidden insult. To protect the local culture and bring fortune, we use the nickname "Tua Ngern Tua Thong" (Silver and Gold). But as a culinary anthropologist, I have to give you a warning: despite their calm look, these are apex predators. This protected species is vital to the Bangkok ecosystem, but they are dangerous. ⚠️ WHY YOU MUST STAY AWAY: The Bite: A toxic cocktail of bacteria and mild venomous enzymes. The Tail: A powerful whip that protects their territory. The Speed: They rule both land and water with lightning reflexes. They are beautiful to observe from a safe distance, but never forget: you are in THEIR territory. 🇹🇭 Would you dare to stand this close to a real-life dragon? Tell me in the comments! 👇

This Sea Ray 320 has had approximately $50k spent on it in 2019, including two brand new Bravo III outdrives. It also has rare moorage available in West Van, which potential buyers can ask about. Sea Ray has a reputation for setting the standard for express cruisers, and this boat is no exception, with a premium blend of style, comfort, and performance. The dedication to quality is evident in every aspect of the boat, from the sporty burlwood dash to the near-flawless dark gelcoat and premium hardware. The interior of the 320 is just as impressive, with plush, brightly lit, and open spaces. The high gloss cherry paneling and mirrored accents create a decor that is rich in luxury and sophistication. The salon settee can convert to a double berth, while the forward berth is a queen island, and the mid-cabin berth is convertible. Privacy curtains separate these areas from the main cabin. There are also many new features, including a Fusion stereo and four new 1350 AGM maintenance-free batteries. The boat comes with a new Ray Axiom GPS with a doppler radar system, and the heat exchangers, alternators, and water pumps were all recently replaced. The hull was stripped and given a new antifoul in 2020, and there is a new ACR spotlight. The boat also includes an ESPAR Marine Diesel Heater Kit, and the canvas was replaced approximately four years ago. This turnkey package is ready to go and is probably the most up to date 320 on the market today. Additionally, all four risers were recently replaced with MerCruiser OEM parts, and spring maintenance was completed, including replacement of all zincs, an oil change, and new spark plugs for the Kohler generator. Those interested in this Sea Ray 320 can ask about potential moorage sublet and call anytime for an appointment to view.
