Let's make a 68' yacht that looks like a 16 foot boat... What?

Wow! that's different! Certainly unique. I didn't realize how big it was until I focused on the girl.

Kinda neat actually. it does look like a smaller boat. They prolly give those away.

Reminds me of an old Studebaker. It will get you there but dang ugly.

two things jump to mind. #1 is that the floorplan don't match the pictures shown. I don't see a galley, much less a guest cabin...

And #2, those bridge chairs (including the helm seat) look about a comfortable as a church pew. Anyone knows that a perfectly vertical seat back is murder on your ass and back when you sit on it. I guess style has its price...

I'd take one if they gave it to me.
