- allaboutdatiki, on 10/22/2007, -0/+2I'll take two.
- SerifTheRobot, on 10/23/2007, -0/+2And 40 tennis ball launchers, and 5000 tennis balls.
- Hoxie, on 10/22/2007, -1/+1It would be tight to turn this into a luxury pirate ship.
could you imagine a 12 inch gun sandwiched in there somewhere? - BassMastr, on 10/23/2007, -0/+3Or you could send 2,500 kids to college for 4 years*...
..I'd take the yacht in a heartbeat.- BassMastr, on 10/23/2007, -0/+1*based off the state school being 13,000 a year. (which is about the average...rounded to make math simple.) I only include this b/c some digger will make a big deal b/c he doesn't have anything better to do in his parents basement than to surf the Internet and find typos and can't take a joke. That's why he is sitting in is basement digging rather then getting invited out to watch Monday Night Football with everyone else.
- BigFuzzyArchon, on 10/23/2007, -0/+1My store has a booth at the boat show for 28 years now :)
I'd rather have one of the Cigarette boats over that yacht. You need a crew to own that boat. - jmpeagle, on 10/23/2007, -0/+2but nowhere near the largest or most expensive...that's just the most expensive to appear at that show
it rents out for approximately 800,000 a week, I think I have seen it in a few brochures. It's owned by the family of the late James Moran, a billionaire/philanthropist) who died last April.
here is the largest I could find at 525 feet long
