Re: Big Boats and Yachts - Do average folks really own these?

So is this one a Yacht or just a "big boat" ?!?!?

Rinker 342EC on eBay. 37' LOA, 12' beam, $137,500

And of course it's tied to the dock without bumpers?!?!?!

Heres one thats 3 years older for $70k. Significantly less money for basically the same capabilities. Makes you wonder if the extra $67k is really worth it doesn't it?!?!

We rebuilt one of the V12 Caterpillar generators on board the Princess Mariana pictured. When the tender is out, that is a swimming pool.

As far as the refit? There were so many F ups by the yard that did the work I don't think they will be coming back soon! Yard went bankrupt, not just due to that boat however.

I work on those things all day long. Never meet the owners, all registered to some dummy corp in the Cayman Islands or the Marshall Islands.
