More absurd yet has to be puching a 95-footer at 27knots. I wonder how
many gallons per minute that has to consume?

Let's count - one, two, many, lots.

95-feet isn't a boat, it's a business.

Damn straight. Really, 95 feet? That's just plain ridiculous.

Then again, look at some of the homes people with that kind of
monetary horsepower build - 5000 sq ft for three.

I dont' get it.

I have a 3,800 footer for 2. That's because I am an empty nester though.
Bought the house new 15 years ago. Wasn't planning for the 2 kids to grow up
that soon. When I retire, I'll move to a smaller house with an outbuilding
for the woodshop that has taken over the basement.

But a 95' boat is really way out of the question. Who on earth would buy
such a thing?


Someone who couldn't afford a 100' boat?


I am laughing my backside off. That has to be the only explanation.


A friend and I took a motorcycle ride from Holland down to Monaco, and
thereabouts. While there we stopped at the port. He's not a boater, but I wanted
to see what was there. The 'boats' docked at the port are unreal. This site
gives an idea.

I guess those folks are the ones who buy 95' boats!
