    There was a recent thread about Walley tenders & the lack of them in the States.
    I was out on my on my 50 Bertram two weeks ago & when I backed into my slip, I discovered this on the other side of the dock...........

    In the back of the last picture is a BEAUTIFUL 1988 87' Burger "Hornet". The yacht is spotless & perfect in every detail. The owner of Hornet recently sold his half ownership in the sailing (race) yacht "Harrier".
    It must be nice to be young & have that much cabbage sitting around :rolleyes:

    A sailboat named "Carrera". The owners last name is Jackson. I believe Carrera is only 80' or so. The tender just follows them around

    Yep! That would be the one. I was looking for pics on the net but you beat me to it. Good job Kevin!
    Though I'm not a big snail boat kind of guy, I bet it would be cool to pull up with both of those!!!

    There's a batch of pics of here on the Wally site. The owner must be a Porsche fan... ;) Awesome boat too... the lines, the color... just another example of Wallycool!

    I'm not a sailing boat addicted either, but those Wally sailing boats are just pieces of art...

    What a sleek design !!! Silver hull, flush deck with teak and straight lines, I just love it...

    If you can get a pic of the stern, and there's a name on it, the name and font are usually related to whichever big boat it's with (obviously). Rrara with Carrera, Tee2Too with Tiketitoo, etc.

    Was the color and font anything close to the attached pic of Dark Shadow? She is Japanese owned... so... "wasabi"... just a guess. :cool:

    your avatar, isn't that the Koenigsegg C8 ? Your car ?

    Sorry to be curious, but as a serious car-enthusiast, I just had to ask... :D

    If it really tops out at the 388 kmph (2nd fastest production-car on the planet after the Bugatti Veyron) , it would need to be the extremely exclusive CCR-version ... Needles to ask if you reached this speed already :D

    Yee- (and if you'll allow) Haaaa ...

    You must have been doing a multitude of things very well and very right in order to be able to afford this car. I can only envy you for being very succesfull.. :eek:

    GReetz,
