Yacht Flocking...

Per Wikipedia:

In the movie Bell, Book, and Candle Gillian Holroyd's cat is named Pyewacket, but the cat itself was a Siamese cat, not a black cat — the type most commonly associated with witches. The name has become a fairly popular one for cats because of this movie, but relatively few know its origin.

Pyewacket is also the current name of a MaxZ86 class sailing yacht commissioned in 2004 by Roy Disney, former CEO of the Walt Disney Corporation, designed by Reichel-Pugh along with an identical sister ship named the "Morning Glory," and built in the Cooksons shipyard in Auckland, New Zealand. The boat is a modern turbo sled, equipped with a hydraulically equipped canting keel which allows it to shift its keel-ballast during full sail in order to reach previously unbelievable speeds. The boat was recently donated to Orange Coast College in hopes of a full season of record breaking racing by amateur student sailors.

especially for the spectator

This boat is a VERY modernized Huckins with jet drives! Not one to be appreciated by Huckins purists (myself included), but still a nice boat.
Its on the market for $2.3M

Correct. I sold her in March 2005 to a couple in Annapolis. "Windrush" is a 55' Trumpy built in 1966. You may have seen her in previous years at Vintage Weekend at Ocean Reef under her previous ownership. She is currently doing crewed charters.

how large?

what is the maximum size yacht permited to pass trrough icw where the yacht flocking pictures are taken?

No Permission Needed

There is actually no regulatory body who will restrict passage on the ICW. The limiting factors are depth and width. I can't recall anyplace on the entire ICW where length would restrict your passage.
Carl, from the pics I'm guessing your perch is somewhere north of PGA on the east side? So to be specific for that area the restrictions are:
Depth - Supposedly controlled at 8' (but they're not really maintaining that anymore).
Height- 65' (which is the limit for fixed bridge height for the entire ICW except one bridge which is 55')
Beam- At 85'- 90' it's not really a factor, although I suppose a huge squatty barge could push those limits).

So, in reality you'll not likely see any yachts greater than 155' transitting that stretch. Another factor is that the next deep water inlet to the north is Ft. Pierce at approximately 45 miles.

thats one big sportfish!!!

Its 70 feet.

Very cool open interior, and huge 21.6 ft beam!
