Staten Island natives Pete Davidson and Colin Jost have purchased a decommissioned Staten Island ferry boat for $280,100, their real estate agent says.

The 277-foot John F. Kennedy was commissioned in 1965 and recently decommissioned due to mechanical issues, according to DCAS.Will Heath / NBCAndy Samberg might have sang"I'm on a boat," but it's his"SNL" successors who just bought one.

Italia, who is also a co-founder of Manhattan’s The Stand comedy club, told the New York Post that the trio plans to turn the boat into a live entertainment space. Jost and Davidson are now responsible for picking up the boat from DCAS’ premises, and have 10 days from Wednesday to do so. Both Davidson and Jost are well-known Staten Island natives. Davidson's 2020 film"The King of Staten Island" is loosely based on his younger years, and Jost often makes fun of his home borough during"Weekend Update."
