The two dinghys are 75 HP 19' Boston Whalers. Originally She was the TOP Secret, and the dinghys were "cloak & dagger". She was constucted in 1964 in Miami Florida, First owned by the Tycoon Jim DeSpain of Pepsicola. It has changed hands many times, I have already promoted sale of Her and recieved confirmation. She uses a crew of:1 Captian (60K)
2 Navigator (40K)
3 Cook (36K)
4,5,Skippers(17k)
6 Finisher (24K)
7,8 Deckhand.(11K) All each yearly salary.
Of course the personell stays with the Ship in most cases, depending on Port of this World vessel.The expense of keeping such a Girl is only justifyable for floating office purposes, as mail at sea can be delivered on the Heli acceptor, and besides, 374 gallons/hour at 13 knots is economical for a 113 foot Vessel.
She starred on Miami Vice when the season was current.
It cost 753,000 in 1964. Today about 1.37M
She will be scraped within 5 years is my best estimation.
I really would like some plans for a 24' world class saling vessel that can withstand seas at the length.
Thanks for the response!
