Holy excess... Larry Ellison made his yacht longer so he could out do Paul Allen's yacht that has 7 little boats, a hidden, underbelly SUBMARINE dock and TWO helicotper pads on it.

Can you even call them yacht's when they are that big? That word seems too small.

But of Octopus, the vessel cost Allen $200 million and has a permanent crew of 60 people, including several former Navy Seals. It has two helicopters, seven boats and a remote-controlled vehicle for crawling on the ocean floor.

Its "James Bond" interior includes a dry dock for a submarine, which has the capacity to sleep eight for up to two weeks underwater.

WTF?

Just give me one of the 7 boats and one of the choppers. Hey why not throw in the submarine as well. I don't need a damn near 500 foot boat man. That's like having a 6 foot *****. What good would that be.... hey check this out I can open doors with my ****. I can even balace my beer on it. But what good is it REALLY. you know.
