it was pretty sweet, I\'d say it was classic wood with some streamlined modern features. i think it was about a 43 footer, not a huge boat but I\'m sure the bells and whistles make up the price tag

From my summers working on a yacht club fuel dock, I know a custom boat like that (despite it\'s relatively modest size) can easily fetch (urban?) $1,000,000+.

That boat is gorgeous.
He does know that you can get a DWI on a boat, right?
