Default No rod holders on Paul Allens boat

I sat and stared for 15 minutes at Paul Allens yacht today... i observed the following:
1. no rod holders
2. no net
3. no kicker motor
4. no tuna blood on the deck
5. his 4 spare boats are bigger than my one boat
6. no cup/beer holders
7. no torn upholstery
8. no rock dents from diamond lake
9. i didnt see a pee can

it doesnt look like a fishing boat to me at all.... i also suspect he makes more money then me... joco

So was this the same one that was pictured in the Oregonian last week? It has two tenders - 42' motor boat and a 43' sailboat.

That was the small yacht also. :shocked:

Dang Steelie Steve, if you know about yachtspotters and some other stuff, you too must be a yachtee.

I'm finding there are a lot of old sailors and yachtees out there on Ifish.

Nope. Yachtspotters was listed in the Oregonian article last week on Paul Allens boat (small ship in my mind). Thought it was interesting though. There are some mighting wealthy people out there. :shocked:

Yeah, I would like to have the problem of Allen's smaller yacht. Rumor has it his other yacht (really 2 yachts and no fishing boat?) is the 2nd biggest yacht in the world. Just one word of advice, watch for icebergs!
