For $1.7 million, that guy could have bought himself a nice used

never sails.


He probably didn't pay cash, he financed it.. 20, 30, 40 year loans,
and if you live on it 2 weeks a year its a second home. So he has a
boat, with no cash flow to take it anywhere.


So he was up the creek without a paddle?
