  • A small boat admires yachts for charter during the Ft. Lauderdale Boat show, the world's largest boat show which attracts vendors, builders and customers from around the planet.  It has been said that a boatman's dream is always always a bigger boat.  The need for more room to accomodate owner, guests and crew and privacy from each other quickly drives the scale of a yacht into absurd proportions.  For all with the owner's family, guests and crew comes the need for refrigeration, cooking, food storage, water makers, engines, generators, waste management, air conditoning, tenders, cranes, jet-skies and a vast array of other water toys to keep everyone entertained over vast periods of time.  Yachting has been said to be the equivalent of standing in a cold shower shredding money.
