    Why would someone so clever spend so much money on something soooo ugly:eek: I guess to him it was more about the technical aspect than the looks.

    One thing money cant buy is knowledge of boats. That looks more like a garage build. Stink pots are a waste of berthing space in harbours. No fun in them at all.

    That doesn't sound at all like Steve in the last 15 years!

    Looks great, probably uses some obscure fuel which is "better", more expensive and only obtainable thru Apple stores...

    A bit like the iPhone boxy but good :D maybe the next boat would have been thinner and sleeker.

    i dunno .... i like it.... it won't look like every other yacht at berth, and it prob ably will drink more fuel than every one else's too.

    Hurricane Sandy would sure look impressive out those huge windows as well....

    If I had to imagine what an iboat would look like, it would look like this.

    Do you just tap on the glass to make it go?

    She is 'powered' by 6 iMacs, but still appears to have a couple of throttles

    I dont think Steve would be too happy with that wire coming out of the door.

    When is the money (including lost growth) Michael Noonan took in the Pension Levy going to be paid back?

    "Christening" a yacht, WTF? If you're going to write sh1te at least make it semi-believeable sh1te.

    Looks like they will have to pay a few more quid before they get the boat http://www.boats-for-sale-worldwide.com/blog/apple-boat-impounded/
