A nasty fizz boat will always be a nasty fizz boat but at least that's nasty in a real classy way.
You're right though it is a sexy beast and with a good pile of style.

All boats are nice.
Even the odd sailboat can seem attractive at closing time.

Does this qualify as a powerboat?

How does this rate in the powerboat classification? It's a 1922 Rolls Royce Silver Ghost supporting a Honduran mahoghany body designed last year by Olin Stephens(when he was only 98 years old). My amigo Bob Dixon and I built it over the course of one year, "launching" it in May. It just completed a six week "cruise" through Scotland, suffering constant rain the whole time. Good thing it has plenty of bouyancy.
