What kind of boat does everyone own, if you could have your dream boat
what would it be?

I own a '96 Doral 36 Express Cruiser. My dream boat would be a 50"
Trawler.

What I saw in Miami this weekend that looked nice.

Looks a lot like Paul Allens boat.

Looks like whoever took that picture, of the Mirqab, could use a couple lessons

I had few options from my balcony and the ship's captain was not

You need a Davit Eraser:

I guess we could have laid it over the sail boat with Atlantis behind
it. I just did not want to manipulate the photo and get accused of
faking anything here. ;-)


I sincerely doubt you would even consider taking credit for something that
wasn't yours, Gary.
