The first two photos are of ECSTASEA 282 ft. Powered by four 3154 HP MTU Diesels and One 31,269 HP gas turbine.
The Third photo is of TATOOSH 301 Ft. Powered by two 4400hp. Other than the 500 Notar helicopter there are two 40ft Hinkley's one power one sail on each side, plus other toys. They both look like they just came out of their boxes.
I assume they are here for the St. Pete Gran Prix

Must be nice to have $$$ like that. You should have pulled up next to her and slapped a
CorrectCraftFan.com sticker
On her stern just to make it look nicer!!!

It's nice to see that you are getting out on the water. How's the weather been? Looks like we'll be down again from March 11 thru the 17th. Can't wait to get in some warmer weather.

Big Dave,
Good to hear from you. Call me when you get down. Todays weather was blue sky and 70. The photos were taken today at 1 P.M. The truth is I took the photos from my truck. As you know we are surrounded by water. The motoryachts are moored at the St. Pete Port Authority, which is just up the street from the boat yard you and I met at. I Googled the vessels for info. It is mind boggling the wealth some people have. The values of those rigs are North of 100 million
Hows the Mustang coming.

Those things are large and in charge. I would imagine you woulden't want to be behind that one when that turbin spools up.

Chuck,
I am glad you liked it. I got a DVD for myself and still haven't had time to watch it. It was also made as C.D.
Stay in touch
