Yachts

Having been in the offshore marine industry for 20 years, I've always been a big fan of big boats. It doesn't appear that I'll ever have the millions of $$$$ to purchase one, or the hundreds of thousands of dollars for its upkeep each year.
I do like to look though.

trudging - i was involved in operations of offshore seismic vessels (oil exploration) / boats running from 180' to 320' in lenght with crews of 35-60

Jim - I know they're everywhere but I appreciate the luxury of them knwoing I will never have or really want one - too many headaches

I have designed custom carpet for several of those big ships. You wouldn't believe how picky and extremely anal-retentive some of the owners are. Then again, maybe you would.

Following up on trudging's question, is there such a thing as onshore marine industry?
