    Looks exactly like the one Alex posted about at SotP on Wednesday…they look almost exactly alike.

    Sure does. I guess it’s been awhile since I’ve been over there.

    BTW, Alex is wrong about the location. See the geotag on the flickr page for the actual location.

    Found a mention of a “M.Y. Silver Goose” in a listing of magazine issues for group called Hardy Owners Club:

    Magazine No. 95 January 2006

    Marine Market – Editor’s Forward – Membership Matters – The Hardy Pilot – Club Regalia – Calling All Creatives – The HOC Website – Canopies – The Maiden Vogage of the M.Y. Silver Goose – Crew Discipline – Letters to the Editor – Advertisements

    No links to the full article though. Wonder of it’s the same boat? Maybe they’re on a round the world trip or something. I am insanely jealous, of course.

    I drove by this gorgeous example of maritime engineering today. I’m convinced it’s some marketing ploy to promote a new kind of skid row vodka.
