Sorry to hear about your mom.

Still don't understand how one takes a vacation when retired, much less two in a short period of time. (Thought that was what retirement was)

Thought you had been around long enough to know the rules. No posting I got a new toy without accompanying pictures of said toy (yacht in your case).

Come on, cough em up. We wanna see.

I'm not really sure what I pictured the inside of that boat would look like, but I know I didn't think it would look that nice. That's impressive.

Now time for the dumb questions. Why are these boats always white? I get the visibility aspect, but it's not like there's not enough electronic gizmos on those things to help out with that stuff now.

I could be wrong, but I think the 84' means 84 feet long, not 1984....

I've been wanting one of these puppies since spring but they are so hard to find. I can't find a single one in stock online anymore so when I found this in a gun shop, I didn't hesitate.

It should be considerably easier to conceal than the CZ 75 clone I am carrying now.

I likey

I've got a friend that's looking at this boat. It's not at all the yacht pictured above, but it could be. 126 footer originally built in 1929. I'm surprised at the interior based on its age. It needs a lot of updating, but it appears to have really good bones.

It almost makes me wish that I was retired. He's figuring a 3 month cruise from Washington state just to get it to Florida. Lot's of pictures at the link.

Gerry she has C32 cats still under extended warranty with 19 months or 600 hours left to go.

She was built in 2007 for someone well known (Brian France) from NASCAR.
This will be my second hand me down from him lol. I purchased a 70' Azimut that was his back in 2006.

White 97 is correct she's 84' feet (based on model). Actual overall length is 85.4x20.1 with a 4.6 draft. The draft makes it a perfect Bahamas boat

Roy, that boat needs a 4 million dollar refit (at least)

But she would be sweet
