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



A good buddy of mine worked for a 'rich dude' in Florida. The guy had
two large yachts...one in Florida and one in the Mediterranean. Before
my buddy left..there was talk of traveling to Hong Kong and buying a
larger boat for Florida. Seems the 'little one' there didn't have a
helicopter landing pad.

I'm having a hard time selecting my next boat. I'm sure it'll be one of these,
but haven't decided which -- yet.

I would suggest you consider the Le Grand Bleu. According to the write up,
LGB was lengthened from 108m to 114m by her new owners. I think the OEM
didn't put in rod holders and the new owners had to lengthen the boat to
install them.

Look at the 'dingy' on that thing. I'm sure it's bigger than my Proline. Glad to
hear they've made it a worthwhile boat by installing rod holders!

I did have a good look at the dinghy, the one at the stern. It looks just
like my boat er ah dinghy. I thought I was a boater, now I realize I am just
a dinghist, dingher, or closer to a dinghbat. :}

Check out the Annaliesse. There was a special on some TV show yesterday that
showed a tour of this thing. It was unreal. Theater, spas. swimming pool, you
name it, the boat had it. Five levels with an elevator. It can be leased for
$120,000 per *day*, or for a real bargain, $350,000 per week. Maybe I'll take
the wife out for a couple weeks cruise in the Med. [Maybe he'll rent the dinghy
for only $2500 a day!]
