Tired of the ICW Thread For Non-Boating Dopes

The first time I knew I had to win the lottery was when I saw a helicopter on the back of a yacht! Since then I have seen a few more and one actually had two! We saw one just the other day and it was not a huge boat either, maybe a little over 100 ft. It was a very small looking copter however and I don't think you could pay me enough to try landing it on a small, moving deck like that. |

The last one had some serious helicopters on board. I don't know the size of the yacht other than huge - north of 100' long. Knowing nothing about helicopters, they both had the large turbine engines, a main prop and no rear vertical prop. Cayman flagged. |
