I was just in Lauderdale at the Marriott Marina near the convention center and this yacht showed up Thursday night right outside my window. So I thought it was something special and google searched the name and came up with this: http://www.shark.com/normanexpedition/
The largest aluminum yacht made. $70 million. 228 feet. Launched October 2002 by Greg Norman and his wife. And the list goes on.
Might want to check it out if anyone is down there.

I suspect Lauderdale is a good place for that yacht. It wouldn't really fit behind his house in Hobe Sound, FL, and even if it would, you'd be troubled to find a wide spot to turn a 228' yacht that draws 10' of water around... The intracoastal north of Jupiter Inlet isn't really 10' deep. Maybe he'll anchor it out in the ocean... Take the "little" sport fisherman in to the house.

Have seen this before. That sport fisherman is,I believe 42'. He has a seperate tackle room on the yacht that houses 200 rod/reel combos. When I was a teenager I thought that golf was a sissy sport. What a dummy. Still tryin to figure out what size inner tube to carry on my 15'super sport to use as a fishin machine.
