REVERE — “Want to see a big [expletive] pumpkin?”

It was the first thing Christian Ilsley said as he opened his front gate to welcome a Globe reporter.

He wasn’t kidding about the size. Tipping the scale at around 500 pounds and growing, the bulbous, orange lump that’s been thriving in his modest backyard is massive.

For the last several months, the 31-year-old West Roxbury native has been carefully tending to the gargantuan “Atlantic Giant” pumpkin, for which he has big ambitions.

Ilsley’s not just going to carve a grin into the pumpkin and prop it on his front lawn for Halloween. Instead, he plans to hollow out his creation, plop it into Boston Harbor, and use it as a seafaring vessel, as he paddles from Jeffries Point in East Boston to the Fish Pier and back.

“That was kind of my crazy main goal,” he said, standing next to the pumpkin, which came above his knees. “I just wanted to grow the biggest pumpkin I could in my backyard. But I was just like, ‘All right, I have got to do something with it that’s insane, or fun.’ And I was like, ‘That would be [expletive] amazing if I crossed the harbor — in a pumpkin.’ ”
