I wonder when this will show up in Simpson Bay.

I wonder if it is larger than Roman's yacht Eclipse which failed to make an appearance this winter, wonder why lol. The other morning we awoke to a super yacht anchored outside our window which was only 295 feet long. So of course I had to find out who owns this one. The name was dreAMBoat, yes spelled that way, the capitals are the owners initials, Arthur Blank who owns Home Depot, so that's where all my money went

Whale Tail--checking out all the yachts on Simpson Bay is such a big part of enjoying Beachside!! Enjoy!

Soon if we're lucky..... maybe by that time you'll learn it's spelled Bezos??

I can only blame it on autocorrect. Maybe someone above will correct it as edit has expired. Oh well. I'm sure he's been called worse. 😉

It might help if posters would READ (proofread) what they post to make sure it is want they actually want it to say, both in the heading and in their posts.

JD, what you are expecting is just too hard for some people.

Over the years, I have noticed as such. It seems the more people get into texting; the worse typing becomes.

Thanks for the Edit.

As I recall there was a problem getting the yacht from the shipyard to the ocean because there was an abandoned RR bridge at the river mouth that had been designated a national monument. The raised center portion was not high enough to let the masts get through. Bezos proposed dismantling the center portion and then rebuilding it after his yacht had passed. The local government denied his request. Did he dismantle the masts? Does anyone know?

It explains what they ended up doing in the article I posted in the link.

Sorry, I missed the continue reading button.

What a concept! I, too, wish more folks would do that.

Not a problem. Easy to miss.
