Nice Fred! I'll have to store mine in back of the house since our homeowner association rules prevent us from leaving our boats in the driveway!!

Gee! I don't think my PowerBall Lottery jackpot winnings will be enough to buy it! Even if it did, I could never afford the insurance or operating costs! I think there are maybe three people in the world that could afford it, Bill Gates being one.

Worked at Palmer Johnson Yachts and we had a Hoovercraft in the boat's garage for the son of the King of Spain to use. When visiting the 'build' here in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin the kid chased his dad around the parking lot with it. That was a blast. The King almost got sucked up. And the 'Duct Tape' guys interviewed Jr. It's on a U-Tube video. And on a hot day we had the RED BULL girls drive up and passed out samples. I don't think any of the PJ guys looked at the RED BULL! It was a hot day and clothes were optional. We lost 5 boat contracts with the last presidential election and 530 of us are gone. PJ's liquidated. Nice looking boat to be sure. Beyond prefection with out a doubt. Cool pair. Like the car. skip.
