Maxi 999 is a yacht. A yacht is just a luxury boat. Has little to do with size.

Pro tip: when hanging out with squids, be sure to mix up boat and ship all the time.
The best rule I've heard is that a boat leans inwards when it turns but a ship leans outwards.
Wow... that’s actually a pretty good standard.

I do some fishing. This year the heat make it slow going. We get pike, perch and zander out here.
A dragon ship would be great but I would miss the cabin. This year it wouldn't have been a problem though. I could sleep under an open sky all summer when it is like this.
Put a dragon head on the bow, or I’ll never respect you.

I don't really even know the difference between a boat and a ship in the way the Navy describes it. You just know a ship in practice. That's an interesting observation, though.

Hastur, he has a point. It's not legit until it has a dragon.

Cool.
I had to look up what a Zander was, looks very much like a Walleye or Sauger of North America. White meat, pretty good eating.

Zander is often called pikeperch. Here's some good footage of what Stockholm fishing look like. These guys are good.

That's a bit misleading. The property manager is quoted as saying he is concerned for the safety of everybody, including children. While you and I might think it's stupid, this guy is responsible for keeping the communal property safe and it's his call.

If I left a huge inflatable pool in our communal property, the property manager would haul me out of the gym and make me take it down (she's a gym rat). It sounds like they have more freedom to do shit on their communal property than most condo owners in America do.

And that Maxi 999 looks pretty sweet. It's only 32 feet but I could easily live in there longterm.

Hastur has style.
No doubt. That is one slick looking sail boat.
This was the one I used to sail... When and If, it was a Schooner Yatch comissioned by General Patton.
