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.

I have seen a few with two. 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.
