Workin' Man's Yacht
Cheoy Lee Shipyards North America is proud to annound the completion of
the initial sea trials of the newest model to the Cheoy Lee family, the 95 Sport Motor Yacht. The 95 was designed by Mike Burvenish of M.G. Burvenich, Inc in Stuart FL and is scheduled to arrive in Ft. Lauderdale this summer. Construction of the 95SMY incoroporated Cheoy Lee's proprietary resin infusion technology as well as honeycomb furniture construction. Both techniques translate into freater strength with substantially less weight. The boat will be displayed at the Ft Lauderdale International Boat Show this fall and at the Miami Boat Show next February. Hull number on eof this new line was recently launched and successfully sea trialed at the company's facility in Doumen, China. Accoring to B.Y. Lo of Cheoy Lee Shipyards, the yacht, which is equpped with C-32 CAT engines, exceeded our expectations for this initial sea trial and reached speeds in excess of 27 knots" *************** Wow. 95 feet of yacht barreling along at 27 knots. That would be a sight to see. By the way, the first two hulls are already spoken for but there's stil time to get first deposit in on hull #3. Baseprice is $4,672,500, so everybody will want one. |

Hello, Karen
Glad to see you're alive and well. There has been so much Krause bashing here of late, and not a word from you, I thought you might have drowned or something. For the humor impaired, "Workin' Man's Yacht" titling this thread should give you a clear idea that I'm being sarcastic. Surely you can appreciate sarcasm, right? But goodie, goodie. I've been saving up a number of boat reviews until somebody who really enjoys reading them showed up- and here you are. Now that you're back, I'll post several between now and Monday. Enjoy. :-) |

betcha that Chuckie soon threatens to once again take his ball and bat
and run home to Mommy. He has done so quite recently when called on the carpet and has done so other 3 times to my recollection, each time returning with a "Who Me?" attitude. Pretty funny. Actually pretty sad. ********** There's no pleasing the gang of Internet Terrorists from Ohio, is there? Dozens of profane attack posts per day claiming "off topic" as a justification, and now back to the non profane, personal attack posts responding to *on topic* threads. Yawn. Same-o, same-o. And boring. |
Time for another break from the NF for you Gould. You are again on the
verge of another breakdown. Chill. ******************* Some reason you feel compelled to follow me around the group, into every thread, and make personal remarks? Whatever it is, I'd probably prefer not to know about it. Try to think of something a bit more adult and productive to occupy your time. Thanks. |

And yet another pasted spam advert from the failed used car salesman, who now chases around the rich hoping to pick up the odd crumb from the marketing table. Gee & the good liberal that lectures you about buying locally made toasters instead of supporting those evil non union foreigners??? How many toasters would fit in a 95 ft boat??? & hey if you imported them in the boats you'd save freight to evil foreign ship owners??? A sad uneducated joke is our Gould, speaking of sad how about that Krause?? K So your sad Krause lie for the day is from the "bride" series. Just like the "father" lies this is sad because it shows how desperate he is to be noticed & seeing he knows he won't be by his own life as a union organiser, he tries for glory by made up family "associations". Needless to say it confirms how totally amoral the lying grub is & what low respect he has for his family. Apparently the wife is actually a social worker & certainly an honourable profession which most would be proud of but no; our non boating liar mate has to lie. Over time I'll give you the full "bride" series & you'll be astounded the BS he's made up, from phony life threads from the NG to "her" business owning a business jet:-) (the jet is actually owned by his union organisation & paid for by honest hard working unionists, the same unionists that have been made unemployed by the unions) Enough!!! so here's the lie; Did you spend a year as a line psychotherapist at a 650-bed state hospital for forensic patients? Did you spend a year as senior psychotherapist at a county facility for substance abusers? Did you spend two years as chief of therapy at a private, 200-bed facility for the mentally and emotionally ill, at which approximately half the patients were trying to beat drugs or alcohol? Are you currently chief of therapy for a for a multi-practitioner practice of some 825 patients, about a third of which are seeking help for substance abuse problems? I betcha that Chuckie soon threatens to once again take his ball and bat and run home to Mommy. I bet it happens later this evening. He has done so quite recently when called on the carpet and has done so other 3 times to my recollection, each time returning with a "Who Me?" attitude. The days of Chuck and Harry pontificating to the group are over and they are both very unhappy about it. Pretty funny. Yes. Actually pretty sad. Yes. Actually it was only a few weeks ago that Chuckie said he was taking his ball and bat and running home to Mommy. This was after numerous attacks on him that showed he was wrong. He returned with his tail between his legs with the explanation of "Who, What, When , Never happened,,Who me...eh?" This is indeed hilarious to see it happened once again. Time to once again run home to Mommy Chuckie? |
Do you have any hobbies, besides me?

********** You'd have to think. You commonly see boats in this category with 36-foot, twin diesel *tenders*! The average boater would be happy with the tender. I think the whole concept of a $5mm yacht is pretty absurd- but then again it would take a net worth of probably $25-30mm to begin to justify tieing that kind of money up in a boat and that will always be absurd to me, in this lifetime anyway. (I'll admit that if I could afford a $5mm boat, and I can't begin to, I would probably have a different perspective and find it a reasonable proposition). More absurd yet has to be puching a 95-footer at 27knots. I wonder how many gallons per minute that has to consume? 95-feet isn't a boat, it's a business. |

I assumed the local authorities declared him a hazard and forced him off the water. Your explanation may be closer to the truth. Can you imagine being stuck in a small cockpit listening to him for hours on end? Enough to make you sell the boat and take up golf. |

Hertvik made some claim a few years ago, but I have no reason to believe anything he posts. Not to worry, though. I filter him out and I am sure he must fulter me out.

Perfect for a 4-person overnight fishing expedition. Has a gourmet galley for cooking up the catch while it's still fresh. 30-Foot SeeVee for a quick afternoon fishing trip. 22-Foot Novurania Equator with a meager 800 horsepower so you can get to the best diving sites ahead of everyone else. It has beach landing capability as well. (2) 18-Foot Hewes Bonerfishers for those special occasions when Greg and a close friend may wish to maneuver over the sand flats in Key West, Florida 13-Foot Narwhal Rescue Boat in case someone falls off one of those other boats. And finally, just for the hell of it, (4) Yamaha Waverunners!!! ================================================== == WOW! |

I could also tell you about the Rolls Royce he keeps in his cottage basement in this area for the one week or so he spends here each year. It's a whole different world these guys travel in. Why yes - yes it is. Just the other day I mentioned to my wife that, what with the size of the F-250 pickup I drive, I really needed to purchase another pickup just so that I could drive around town in something more efficient - oh, say like a Cadillac or maybe a Hummer II. Sadly, she didn't quite agree with that idea, so I'll have to settle for a Dodge Neon - at auction. :) Seriously, it is amazing. My wife has some friends in that income range and it truly is a whole 'nother world. We're doing just fine by comparison, but wowzers. Later, Tom |

JimH is fair game, if you're so inclined. Thank you Chuck. And imagine that....Krause thinking it is strange to sit on ones boat at the dock when the seas were too rough to go out in. Why, we even slept on the boat overnight while at the dock, most often with our kids aboard too. Hell, we even had cookouts and parties at the dock with our friends and other dock neighbors. Amazing stuff....eh Krause? And you claim to be a boat owner? You disprove it with most every post you make here. |

A good buddy of mine worked for a 'rich dude' in Florida. The guy had two large yachts...one in Florida and one in the Mediterranean. Before my buddy left..there was talk of traveling to Hong Kong and buying a larger boat for Florida. Seems the 'little one' there didn't have a helicopter landing pad. I'm having a hard time selecting my next boat. I'm sure it'll be one of these, but haven't decided which -- yet. http://community.webshots.com/album/62798744oAPbjD/0 More likely a paddling pool and a rubber ring, for your Viking funeral. Harry, your insults are music to my ears. I'll have to leave you unfiltered for a while just for the reading pleasure. Did you take your Lobsta boat from Solomons to Tangier? Do you have a satellite internet connection on the Lobsta boat for the posts you made while eating lunch in Tangier? -- John H "All decisions are the result of binary thinking." |
