Plants vs. Zombies Hit the High Seas

A surgeon at Yale University gave his six-year-old son a big surprise by giving the family boat a complete stem-to-stern Plants vs. Zombies [http://www.amazon.com/Plants-Zombies-Game-Year-Limited-Pc/dp/B003O21A2I/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1294352413&sr=8-4] paint job.

Dr. Edward M. Uchio is an Assistant Professor of Surgery at Yale University's School of Medicine. He's also a big fan of the hit PopCap game Plants vs. Zombies, as is his young son. The final piece of the puzzle: he owns a boat. Put it all together and what you end up with is the coolest Plants vs. Zombies Fountain boat ever to hit the high seas.

Whether the paint job was prompted by a special occasion or Uchio is just the coolest dad on the waves isn't made clear, but it hardly matters. What's important is that this latest manifestation of the obsession people have with Plants vs. Zombies is one seriously sweet-looking vessel. But hey, where's the dolphin?

More photos of Uchio's awesome PvZ boat are available on Facebook [http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=258725&id=57571168213#!/album.php?aid=258725&id=57571168213].

I wish I had the sort of money where

1> I could own a boat
2> Have the luxury of painting it to be a PvZ boat.

I knew I should have become a Doctor...

Now that is a kick-ass boat, for a kick-ass Dad.

I wasn't much a fan (it got boring) of PvZ when I played it for a while as part of my new HP's bloatware, but that doesn't stop this paint job from being marvelous nonetheless. I respect nice boats and nice paint, this is both.

Makes me wonder what uninitiated fishermen will think!

I just think it's pretty cool that he's willing to go to all that much effort for his son.

 

[Sartan0]

Nice! I respect his hard work on that!

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

Can't wait it see it slow deteriorate over years of sailing!

Seriously. Just hang that boat from the ceiling or something. It's too sexy to drive!

 

[Evilsanta]

Awesome...

If i only had the money...

I suppose, but it'd still never be as perfect as the top picture.

When I read the title I was like: A new plants vs Zombies set at sea?!

Then I read the article and saw the awesome picture and I am still

Very nice boat...the dolphin better be at the front.

They have coatings you can apply to the hull of your boat for that. I'm pretty sure its standard fare, and similar to winterizing.

Seriously though,kick ass boat!

 

[duchaked]

...and on top of it all, he can paint well too

 

[RaphaelsRedemption]

I may just paint my car like that.

I am inspired!

 

[Jezzascmezza]

That is pretty sweet...
Now if only ninja pirates owned that boat, it would probably be the most bad-ass thing in history.

So if you like this game, you have the same taste as Dr. Dad.
