If I had the time to spec a boat like that ... I'm sure I'd forget a few things ... like where I last saw my wife ..shopping somewhere so what funny how those guys probably arent too concerned about their wives/sig others and more interested in prop selection ..

It's not just buying them, it's running them. Leander, which is owned by the chap behind NCP Car Parks, Sir Donald Gosling cost approx $490,000 a week plus expenses, drinks like Oliver Reed.

The guys that own them are probably small in the trouser dept....

Leander G is very tasteful IMHO. Beautiful looks and not monstrously oversized like some of them we're discussing. I believe that it is the last vessel used officially as the Royal Yacht.
