I don't think I'd ever go in the house......

My first boat was a 1988 Four Winns 195 Soundowner.. and I can't post a pic because it was a Polaroid..

Not unusual for a ceo of a major company to have something like this.
It just happens to be boats.

When you get to a certain level of income or personal wealth, you either spend it or the government will end up getting it. Some people think the rich are sticking it in others faces. Very few do. Most do not.

The wealthy spend it, and keep the job market going. Remember that the next time some schlub who doesn't understand basic economics wants to hang the rich.

I actually started buying old outboards several years ago....but they don't, and never will look like the ones in the video,

Thought about hanging them on my boat house.....but in our community the rednecks would steal them....and they would end up in a scrap yard some where.......and tomorrow they would be reincarnated as a Toyota bell housing.....

Like the guy stated....it is an engineering feat having 22 boat lifts capable of lifting several tons on an 80' or so spand......I would like to see that up close and personal.

Once had a wood boat.....loved it.....one beautiful piece of work.....but never want another one.....up keep is brutal

Does the advent of epoxy (that wasn't around then) make it better?
