Not sure what this is, but its hand laid up mahogany and its a work of art. Its about 45 ft long and appears to be all new electronics. You cannot believe how beautiful this hull is. Lying in Penetanguishene Ontario.

That yellow ribbon is white mahogany and a very very rare wood. I made a desk for my Dad a few years ago out of 40 year old mahogany my Papa had. That stuff is about $80-120/board foot. So just on the starboard side alone is about $13000 of wood.

Now that IS a definate work of art.....thanks for sharing......
 
Get the rest of the story please ,someone that puts that kind of time and $$$ into his toy will surely talk all day about it.(take your camera too)
 
Definitely a piece of art! Absolutely gorgeous!

But I would never hang a dirty fender from a boat like that. Needs some fender socks. I would hate to repair scratches made by fenders on this boat.
 
Talk about pimping your ride!
 
My Toy is beautiful for sure...but I would die for Vendetta, Billy Joel jewel :thumbsup:

Pietro...
Funny, my first thought was that it came from your neck of the woods. Kinda reminded me at first look of a classic Riva. Man, I love those boats...At least he picked the right powerplants- our trusty 3208's !!

Can't find any interior pics...bet it's stunning.
But I seriously doubt any takers for six figures. First, she IS twenty years old, even though she certainly doesn't look so.

Second, there's no information on the build technique; I don't think the more modern cold-molded epoxy methods were used. If such is the case, she is- unfortunately- another "Woody" that's going to be VERY expensive to maintain. Natch, freshwater use in the frigid North with a very short season will help prolong her life.

A beautiful vessel for someone that's got the wallet to have her maintained.
 
Not a Sea Ray. Custom one-off. Sweet.
 
I second the fender socks! That is a beauty but tremble at the thought of maintenance on something like that! And we b!$?ch about a little chalk! Thanks for sharing!
