Your Dream Boat-- Money no Object

Something big enough to live aboard full time and carry a 29-33' twin engined tender.

There would have to be room for a couple of seadoo rxp's also.

I think that about covers it
 
1) 47' Apache w/triple 1500HP's because I'm a V-bottom guy - I'd call it "Much Wampum"
2) 70' Davis Sportfish to catch the big one
3) 118' WallyPower to cruise with style and speed - any bigger that this and you're just showing off :sifone:

Yeah, pretty sure this belongs to Paul Allen....absolutely insane boat. 60 permanent crew members.....that is just too much. Plus have a 414 Ft yatch vs a 150 ft yatch isn't going to get you laid anymore!! :03:
 
I know it sounds boring but I would probably take a pretty sensible approach to boat ownership at this point in my life if money was not a problem. I'd probably pick up a 32-38 ft V with 525 or 600's in it and get used to running it and get some more experience under my belt before I decided to go out an get the 50 Mystic (pleasure version) with twin turbines. I'd also get a cruiser (40 ft or so) and pretty much give it to one of my buddies and just tell them where to anchor so that we could have party on that thing while I buzz around with all of the incredibly hot chicks with loose morals that only hang out with me because I have money.
 
Are you back already?
Back in Nashville, had to send a couple old ladies in a Bingo bus in the ditch but I am pretty sure they did not get the rental car plate number...

Took 69 in Savannah then 22 north to the Highway and then beat that 350z like the rented mule that it is and been sitting working a little and waiting to go to the Predators game!!!!
 
Boats are tools. Different tools for different jobs. If I had the bucks, I'd have MANY boats and a nice place to keep them. Love this boat house!
