    Maybe his tanks weren't empty and he was topping off?

    So, how much is it to cross the Panama canal in one of these?

    Hey, haven't you heard? It's the Jalapenos!

    And, in today's WSJ, the Tomato growers are asking Congress for $100MM in lost revenue damages.

    If I am reading it right, it looks like at least $115k. Still cheaper than going around.

    And Charles Revson's (of Revlon) yacht, Ultima II, was no puddle jumper either. I saw it in the 70's berthed in Palma de Mallorca, it was one magnificent vessel. Anyone else ever see it?

    just out of curiosity, what benefit does one derive from having his/her own satellite (aside from the obvious bragging rights...)? i assume you can't control its orbit. does it just make it cheaper to use a satellite phone?..instead of going through iridium or something...

    Now wouldn't it be cool if the helicopter lifted an Enzo off the boat and set it down in the parking lot.
