Sterling Hayden and his WANDERER schooner

Buddy Ebsen was quite famous for his PolyCon (Polynesian Concept/CSK) catamarans

James Arness had a 60' C/S/K cat, SEASMOKE

I'd have to go with Einstein too as favorite, but Spencer Tracy also deserves mention.

Being nowhere near as profound as everyone else, I'll pick "Rio."

David Crosby when he had Mayan or Neil Young on his big old wooden ship that I cannot remember the name of.

[Chuck Hawley]

Bernard Motissier, hands down.

Sir Francis Chichester is certainly in the Top Ten.

Peter Blake.

I was impressed by knowing that both Guy de Maupassant and H.Matisse spent a considerable part of their late years onboard their yachts.

Never knew that! Thanks..

I was going to say James Arness, but see that he has already been mentioned.

How about Ted Turner?
