You must first upgrade 'The Riches of Terra' to level 5 to unlock your first houseboat/boathouse. After you reach level 5 of The Riches of Terra it will be unlocked, to reach level 5 you can collect resources by making your sim(s) do simple tasks such as: cooking, driving a car( the most effective) ect. Tip: To get gold resource quickly you must have multiple of sims plant corn for 20 minutes. This is the best and effective way to get gold and if you try many times you may get lucky enough to get atleast 1 gold resource with every 6 or so sims that are planting (This is my estimation it is not exact;it is the way I did it.)

You can unlock any of the houseboats when you upgrade The Riches Of Terra to level 5. The first Houseboat unlocked would be the one closest to the Riches of Terra. It is easy to spot, it would be unlocked (green or old glow on the top) unlike the other ones that will be unlocked (grey) which you would need to upgrade the other statues for. Prices may very-- It costs SP points (Social Points) the cheapest to the pricest would be 20SP, 40SP, 65SP, and 100SP for the first Houseboat.

Hope this helps!
