No rod holders, but did you see the outriggers on the side of the bar... :rotf:

Before anyone tries to point out the obvious - I know they are for the tender vehicles, and they are not infact outriggers.



$20M Annual Budget - wholey mackeral

The hell with the tenders, subs, jet skis, and no rod holders,,,

The only thing I noticed was....... there were no BIKINIS.

WHERE ARE THE BIKINIS ????

Aren't they standard equipment for a boat like that???

:shocked: :shocked:

Octopus is about 2-3 years old now.

New yacht being designed currently and Tatoosh will be up for sale.

Ellison's yacht finished sea trials not too long ago, its larger than Octopus.

Paul Allen and Larry Ellison have been fighting over largest superyacht for a few years now and there's no end in sight.

They have no where else to put their money - seriously - I cannot even imagine that kind of wealth. It's beyond a full time job just to spend it.

I had one of those a couple of years back. Had to get rid of it because it wouldn'd fit under the borne and sagamore bridge's. :rotf3:

With wealth like that, you don't think about buying something, you just tell them to wrap it.

BTW - Can you imagine my 19 foot center console flying from the mast as a wind indicator?
