The Yacht Thread

WoodyStylee · Jan 6, 2009

So ive seen a lot of auto discussions, but is there any boating interest on SF? I'm a yacht broker by profession, so I see first hand a wide range of yacht styles. What are your favorites....

In the interest of full disclosure, I'm a Sunseeker dealer...however this was by choice, as my personal preference is reflected.

My favorite.. Sunseeker Predator 108

Oh, if you must do motorboats, my jaw did drop one afternoon on a Rivarama on Lago di Garda.

Not mine.

I like the Wally yachts.

Energytech Marine 83 HD-X

12 knot cruise in the open ocean on full electric, or diesel/electric hybrid. Or whatever the sail will get you. Also - replenishes its battery charge by moving through the water, or being anchored in current - giving it supposedly global range. Interesting technology anyways, and a snappy looking boat!

2008 Bennington.

Does that count?

No sails for me

My favorite. Pershing.

Second favorite. Mochi Craft Dolphin.

Third favorite. Go-fast. This one is Fountain but I like Cigarette and Donzi as well.

I like the larger ones that still employ sails. Skylge

I hate that most "nice" yachts seem to have tacky interiors.

I like the Wally yachts.

Oh...me too

The 118 WallyPower to be precise. Still smitten (and still don't have one).

That Jeff Coons yacht is pretty cool too.

The website mentions a Carlo Riva...is he the same one known for shirtings?

I don't make enough money to even think about a sail boat.

College racing for the win!

Burger Boats, some of the finest made. And of course, Paul Allen's 420 ft monstrosity...

Hallberg Rassy 26 is a nice sensible boat.

Half canvas is fine

Depends on fabric

Depends on price
