I prefer sail...and a more classic look

Spirit Yachts are beautiful (as seen in the Bond film - Casino Royale)



Spirit Yachts Modern Classic Yachts

Also check out the Royal Huisman website...this yard makes some of the nicest yachts (both power and sail) in the world:

WTF is that thing? Looks like something the A-team built and then drove out of a barn to escape...

I like it...downloaded the PDF file.

The Alfra folks are creative and I admire their aesthetic...there are enough clones on the water. They pass by every day.

Completely OT (but then, this is OT, isn't it?) but a clone of the A-Team van blew past me on SR51 this past weekend. It was awesome.

The plate said "8TEAM". LOL!

Yacht?

No - that's a pretty 18 foot Ski Boat.

Now THIS is a YACHT:

Nicely detailed, that bow chin must be good for something.

A boat Leno could love?

The jetski out the back is nifty.

18 meters = 59 feet

That'd be a pretty big ski boat

Mother once told me to never buy anything that Flies, Floats, FKs, or says Fleetwood on the side....she said just rent

Anyway this whole Thread is a waste of time..NONE of you are going to be able to afford anything like this going forward...the days of conspicious consumption and bigger and better toys is OVER...YOUR GOVT IS GOING TO SEE TO THAT...
