Here is what I currently have. A 22' open bow Sea Ray, with a 350 Chevy motor.







But I'm saving my pennies for either this houseboat. ( I took these a couple years ago at the Lake Cumberland Poker Run)



Or one of these 3 Outerlimit's. Each one is over $1,000,000



That houseboat wasn't expensive or cool enough with ONE helecopter... so they added 3.... Just wow. Those outer limiters are nuts. If I get a chance next spring I'll get some pics of the ones at the lake.

Nice boat though. Thats kinda what im looking for. My neighbor has an awesome little boat. I forget what brand.

I've got a pic somewhere with 4 helicopters on that boat. My uncle has a boat in the same marina as that houseboat, and from what he tells me, is that the owner lives in Florida. He will fly his personal plane to either the Lexington or Somerset airport, then take the helicopter to the houseboat.

I've gone to the Lake Cumberland Poker Run every year (except this past summer) since 98 so I have quite a few pics of various power boats. I love it, love being around the noise and the speed of those. Fastest I've been on a boat was about 125-130 ish on a 38' Skater Catamaran.

I would love to see some of those boats.

The owner and friends probably go up and have mock dogfights... or fly around the lake and snipe people with paintball guns.
What else would you do with three mini-copters like that?

I can think of too many things to go wrong in that scenario...
