Life can have its little irritations when you're cruising around the world on your £100million superyacht.

For example, the endless vista of clear blue sea fails to provide much greenery to ease the eye - apart from the odd tropical island.

I have to get me one of these. Then I would need to get a bigger dock.

Bet Hillary and Mac have had a Ride on that Baby- Which One of Their Employers owns that - A Saudi 'royal' Family?

Not yet. It's still on the drawing board. The Bush crime family will get this from Bandar Bush for their move to Paraguay.

Yes and Oblahmas friend Rezko will help him buy one.

No, the Saudi royal family owns the Bush family, and about half of the Bush Administration (military contractors own Cheney and the Dept of Defense). The Clinton Administration seemed to have a love for the Chinese (well, that and a love for slightly skanky ladies).

in preparation for the oncoming global revolution brought about by the widening gap between rich and poor, i thing every wall street swindler and child of robber barons should have one of these yachts to roam the world and avoid decapitation.

Ringing of Revolution

By Phil Ochs


In a building of gold, with riches untold,

lived the families on which the country was founded.

And the merchants of style, with their red velvet smiles,

were there, for they also were hounded.

And the soft middle class crowded in to the last,

for the building was fully surrounded.

And the noise outside was the ringing of revolution.


Sadly they stared and sank in their chairs

and searched for a comforting notion.

And the rich silver walls looked ready to fall

As they shook in doubtful devotion.

The ice cubes would clink as they freshened their drinks,

wet their minds in bitter emotion.

And they talked about the ringing of revolution.


We were hardly aware of the hardships they beared,

for our time was taken with treasure.

Oh, life was a game, and work was a shame,

And pain was prevented by pleasure.

The world, cold and grey, was so far away

In the distance only money could measure.

But their thoughts were broken by the ringing of revolution.


The clouds filled the room in darkening doom

as the crooked smoke rings were rising.

How long will it take, how can we escape

Someone asks, but no one's advising.

And the quivering floor responds to the roar,

In a shake no longer surprising.

As closer and closer comes the ringing of revolution.


Softly they moan, please leave us alone

As back and forth they are pacing.

And they cover their ears and try not to hear

WIth pillows of silk they're embracing.

And the crackling crowd is laughing out loud,

peeking in at the target they're chasing.

Now trembling inside the ringing of revolution.


With compromise sway we give in half way

When we saw that rebellion was growing.

Now everything's lost as they kneel by the cross

Where the blood of christ is still flowing.

To late for their sorrow they've reached their tomorrow

and reaped the seed they were sowing.

Now harvested by the ringing of revolution.


In tattered tuxedos they faced the new heroes

and crawled about in confusion.

And they sheepishly grinned for their memoroes were dim

of the decades of dark execution.

Hollow hands were raised; they stood there amazed

in the shattering of their illusions.

As the windows were smashed by the ringing of revolution.


Down on our knees we're begging you please,

We're sorry for the way you were driven.

There's no need to taunt just take what you want,

and we'll make amends, if we're living.

But away from the grounds the flames told the town

that only the dead are forgiven.

As they crumbled inside the ringing of revolution.

"Exactly HOW SMALL is your penis?"

Will someone please sink this atrocity? The world does not need this kind of crap. If youve ever wondered what these clowns will do with the money they've stolen from the poorest of us, well there's your answer. The bigger the yacht, the smaller the pee-pee!

What's this eye of a needle doing here and why won't my camel fit through it?

The designer of the yacht has obviously never been to sea. The salt spray would kill that garden in a few days.

Exactly what I was thinking when I saw this article, If they are serious and have the money, it can be done in a dome or something like that. I would also use a power source like hydrogen or something that can be created on board.

These "yachts," if not used for pleasure, could be called ships. They have over a half dozen decks. The size of the "yacht" is much larger than the average fishing vessel. They are larger than the fish processing ships. Somehow, these "yachts" can accommodate a few trees and grass. It's almost like Captain Bligh of MUTINY ON THE BOUNTY or Captain Morton of MR. ROBERTS. Captain Bligh had breadfruit and Captain Morton his palm tree. I don't know how; but, the "yachts" can have trees and a lawn.

This is the reason why Dick went to the Saudis. This will be part of his golden parachute.

Whaddaya wanna bet that if this monstrosity ever gets built and sold, that it won't be bought by an American.

Lately, we've fallen behind in everything, even in the ultra-rich category.

    Favorite    Flag as abusive Posted 12:32 PM on 03/22/2008

Falling behind even includes yachts of US manufacture. Not all US imports are containers of toys or appliances. The imports include completely manufactured yachts carried on the decks multi-use cargo ships. Part of the import "surge" started after a luxury tax was applied to US manufactured yachts. Although there has been hardship among US yacht producers; I have not been able to find hard facts and numbers.

Why would anyone have a swimming pool and 4 other yachts, on a yacht?

The jet skis I can understand.

I've been on board a yacht that had on the stern main deck a smaller 42' yacht and a little submarine. The owner's master cabin had a lot of glass for viewing and a deck with small trees and a bit of grass. The owner enjoyed fishing. There was an enormous cabin containing fishing and diving gear that would have put many pedestrian sport shops to shame.

One thing I found very amusing was the number of young woman who attempted to board the yacht. A very well disciplined crew minimized this possibility.

The owners were not in any way like yuppies. They seemed like decent folks who were very much in charge. That is, they were quietly assertive and not offensive to the crew or public.
