One persons "Eye Candy" is anothers "Boat Porn"... And I have to say "I'll know it when I see it"... And I love it...
Those are beautiful boats. When I win the lottery they will be high on my priority list. All the wood, the wide deck space... Classical...
Maybe one day.

Beautiful boats. I must say that I am partial to Ragtime. This old lady was built in a shed as I recall, designed by Spencer in New Zealand and splashed in 1963. I used to watch her race in Long Beach, CA and she motivated me to buy my first boat with a cabin, a 26' T-Bird which I finished like her. She's competing in the Transpac this year.
