The boat has a pair of 2000 hp 12 cylinder diesels and a 4000 mile range. It has a 28' beam and the bow is 15' out of the water. The hull displaces over 600 tons--over 10 times that of a 53' Hatteras.
The problem is that the owner's just completed his 28,000 square foot lake house on over 1000' of lake frontage, and he's never built the docks to hold his little boat. He has to have a licensed boat captain and a couple of deck hands. Oh, and a cook.
I feel so sorry for the guy,,,,,,,,,,I would hate to be in his position with no slip in the back yard,,,,,
I only wish I had that problem.
