Oh, and Paul Allen's Octopus. Notice the "smaller" crafts that it has too.

^ That is simply as big as a building. I'd be scared to buy something that big. I'd take a Wally118 instead.

maybe I could get some crackheads to man it and fill it up with 87 octane

Sadly, the Octopus is no longer the largest private yacht, how big is big enough?

according to wikipedia:

Paul Allen's "Octopus": 413'4" is #8 on the list

Roman Abramovich's "Eclipse": 613' is currently #1 (Due complete in December)

Yea I hear Paul Allen, Larry Ellison, and Roman Abramovich are all competing with each other who has the bigger boat. When one person gets a giant boat another one gets a bigger one and on and on lol... Will it never end? And I think some of the disgustingly rich oil people in the middle east are also getting in on it.
