Why, hello Mr. Cussler!
And, that Chris Craft! What a boat! I would hope it's been restored as described. Too many of those beauties look pretty on the outside, but are rotted through and through. I'd guess this one is fine though, it's only a few miles from my humble suburban St. Louis abode, and all we have are lakes and rivers.
My choice! Oh, I'd likely spend a lot of my time vacationing. I'd like to design as much of my environment myself. I'd split my time between a condominium in the city (FP3, Beacon Hill, Back Bay).
Next would come the harborside compound in old-town Marblehead, which would double as my racing team headquarters. For my personal use, there'd be a
Wally Tender to get out to my choice of a
Wally Power 118 or a custom yacht similar to the
Wally Esense 143. Then the professional boats, surely a
TP-52, an America's Cup contender that whips the stuffing out of the
BMW Oracle Racing 90x90 Tri, and just for kicks and giggles, a custom
VO-70 to knock the silly Ericsson boys off their throne.
The rest of my time would be split snowboarding all over the world, spending time at a log cabin of my own design in the Canadian backcounty, vacationing/drinking in the British Virgin Islands, exploring the Phillipines, Europe, and devoting my full effort to bettering the world and getting rich doing it. Oh, it's possible.
My, have I overspent myself? I guess that's what investing is for.
