This little boat (almost as long as a football field) pulled into safe harbor a few days ago when we were threatened by (what became) Hurricane Matthew. The name is "Venus." Looks like it was packaged by Apple, right? I asked about it at the marina office and, HA!, they said this was Steven Jobs' boat. He commissioned it but didn't live long enough to see it finished. (It allegedly cost $200+ million to build--more than twice the cost of my boat! 😊). It now belongs to his wife. I told a crew member that I own an Apple iPhone and an Apple iPad but it wasn't enough to get me invited on board...
