He uses the Ecstasea, which comes complete with Chinese-themed interior, for cruising and the Sussuro for short journeys and to loan to friends.
Those are 2 of his smaller boats. Wish I were one of his friends.

I'm sure he will be happy to know oil prices are going right back up so he can afford to maintain that boat.

Awesome boat, yet highly ridiculous.

Afford to maintain is understated just like a private jet. I read somewhere that Rush Limbaugh bought a new Golfstream and he said he had a windshield crack on his old plane and it cost him $75k to have it replaced. Funny how even if you can afford the plane/boat ect. how much it costs just to keep it going. I guess it's the same as a car only more zeros.

Authough I'd bet that boat is cheaper to maintain than some of the women he's dated.

Like one DTR member on here, in his signature its says, "you can buy, but can you maintain it". If I had to maintain my truck without my side businesses paying for it, it would kill me.
