Business write off. Most of those big boats are registered under a business. Take clients out and the expenses are a right off. Not many rich people own them outright. They lose too much money that way. And they didn't get rich by wasting money.

All it takes is power. Lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of power. The PT boats in WW2 could do right at about the same... with three 2,000 HP aircraft engines for power. With the added weight to be "comfortable" inside... these probably have more power than that!!!

[@davidbayles6494]

Amazing how these 80 ton+ beauts seem to travel so effortlessly through the inlet! But oh, what money it takes to enjoy such spoils of war. I really like how the Spencer & Bayliss boats ride on the water and they are fast too. They're a little lighter and have a different hull design than Viking, which ride a little more bow-up. Typically, Hatteras & Bertram have always squatted a bit more. It was nice to see Weaver Boat Works, built nearby in Maryland on the Chesapeake Bay get some creds. I like the design with the enclosed bridge and open bridge one deck above. No need for a expensive, heavy tower that looks neat but rarely gets used. That's what drones are for! Ha! ZZP - Thanx for the "reboot" of these glorious days of the 2019 WMO!

[@1STGeneral]

Spoils of war? Higher education has indoctrinated the mindset of many to believe the perception of wealth had to of been achieved by others loss or by thievery of some sort.
