I saw this incredbile boat this morning - Le Grande Bleu
It was so huge, it had like a sixty sail boat on the back deck. I just looked it up on the web and found this info at this website. At least it's EPA friendly.

1. LE GRAND BLEU
354'3" • 2000 A Seattle native who has business interests in a few professional sports teams sure knows how to enjoy himself onboard this yacht. He rang in the new year in St. Bart’s and headed to the Med this spring in time for the Monaco Grand Prix. In fact, during the race he reportedly hosted a party on Le Grand Bleu that was attended by Prince Albert of Monaco, model Naomi Campbell, tennis ace Boris Becker, and racing great Emerson Fittipaldi, among others. No doubt they all were amazed that the massive blue-hulled yacht carries a 72-foot sailing yacht. What they may not have known is that Le Grand Bleu is the first private yacht to receive an Environmental Protection Notation from Lloyd’s, certifying that she complies with stringent voluntary guidelines to control pollution.

1. I wish I could have a ship like that...
And wander the oceans all the time.

2. I wish I had the money they pay just to park it.
It must be nice to be rich.

4. It's #6 on this list...
and there is a question about that.

I found somewhere else that Ellison, of Oracle, is building a 460' boat.

Who says size doesn't count?
