Ooo I love boating, it has to go fast! Gotta have a silly or creative boat name…. I’ve seen one that stood out to me called “my vice”, that names already taken though and sadly I suck at thinking of creative names so hopefully a real good boat name comes to me.

I don’t know where I’d go… it’s just nice to be out on the open water and see nothing surrounding you.. as long as it’s not too far out that you’re lost though.

Seconded. My family owned a boat before. It's not worth the maintenance imo

After we sold it my dad said "the best days of a man's life are the day he buys his boat... and the day he sells it."

Thanks for making that mistake so I don't have to, dad.

I'd sell it and buy Coca-Cola stocks right away. Buying property for personal use is a bad idea since it makes it a liability.

100%. Such an expensive hobby D:, I’d prefer a little speed boat or sea doo but still, the maintenance and gas just makes it so out of reach.

I'd sell it, ya know how many fuel it burns? I am not stupid to go bankrupt just for one day of swimming in yacht, not to mention that I am living in south-west of Poland not in north so it is completely useless for me.

For that money from this yacht I'd rather buy a house or invest it in stock market.

Sorry. I’ve watched enough shark movies to think sailing the sea. I have enough of an imagination to creep the shit out of me. Being eaten alive by sharks, lost in sea, seasick, all the jazz. Yeah, I’m pussy.

Actually, my home back in Marseille is a boat ;)

A sailing one though :


Need to do repairs before I can sail again, but as a home it kicks ass still.

I'd like to go to Corsica, but I need to have a go at it first again, it's not made for high seas.

Maybe recruit someone after that to cross the Atlantic. We may die though ;)

Edit :

You can buy lossless digital music from your favorite Japanese artists on https://ototoy.jp/.
The songs are all DRM-free and you can re-download your purchased albums as you wish.
Show your support to your favorite artist if you can!
ps. if you are looking for Japanese albums, you have to search it in Japanese (not romaji). Just copy and paste the name.

Erm... okay, okay. Like, my Coca-Cola plan was pretty good but still. (Have you checked the dividends they pay? They said dividends should be treated like a cherry on top of the cake, but in this case, it's a cake on top of another cake.)

Anyway, the problem is that crossing the ocean or going on some grand adventure on such a yacht is not very safe (definitely possible, though). It's pretty much only good for partying. I suppose I could also try to visit some of the uninhabited islands in my area. If it was a little bigger, I could probably go a lot farther. I want to get close to the North Sentinel island, but not too close since I'll probably get killed by the mad lads living there.

Selling it (I need the money more lol).

But that would be a boring answer. I'd name it Jenny and go on adventures with my amputee co-captain. We'll sail through hurricanes and catch shrimp for our shrimp company that I just founded.

That's how it is, people these days only value money, ie what has no value in itself...

May I introduce you to the notion of romanticism, perhaps ? ;)

Seems right up your alley, caring for the beauty of the unpractical and forgetting a bit about cold logic.

I have not checked the stock of coca-cola, but even if they were to serve the stocks on solid gold platter for me I'd still never buy stock with them.. just for the principle of the things & my own personal moral compass will not point in their direction either.

Since you also get unlimited money for all of eternity, you could use that money to hire a crew that would sail/cook/clean for you!
Like theres NO WAY I was expecting anyone here to single-handedly sail this huge yacht all by themselves!!! That would be crrraazzzyyy impossible.

Tho I did just finish watching this film (Adrift, 2018), where a woman actually did have to do that in order to survive, but still...
it is possible!

Alsooo... why North Sentinel island? i dont think theyd appreciate outsiders??

Oh, you have such a strong moral compass, Zen! It's truly admirable.

I see. That makes things a lot easier, but would also make pirating pointless if I already have unlimited money. I guess I should focus on my second dream, which is to find proof that mermaids exist.

North Sentinel island is the home of a hunter-gatherer tribe that is not exactly very friendly to outsiders to say the least.

Here's a quick video:


Also, some Christian missionary got killed there after that video was made.

I am not good at driving, so even if I owned a yacht, I think I would give it up quickly. Ahhh, but I may not name it. Elizabeth or something...

There is no option to go somewhere because I would get lost.
