Buying your first boat is the best day of your life. The second best day is selling it

Sailing your own yacht is like standing in a cold shower tearing up twenty pound notes

Proposals for it include turning it into a commercial heliport, a base for security personnel during the London Olympics, or a school and nightclub.

A school and nightclub.

I wish my school days were like that.
