I think management and technology all come into play in building a super-yacht. It is a challenge - a serious challenge.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm a big yachting fan.
I have high-tech tastes. If I had $100 million, I would spend it on research equipment rather than a yacht.
If you don't succeed on your own ground, then there's no reason to succeed. Unless, of course, you really want a boat. If you're a person who feels that with a yacht, everything will be all right, then you should do whatever you have to and get the yacht.
I think the people who end up being extraordinarily successful - it's been my observation - tend to care enormously about status, particularly business people, right? Because the only point of money, you know, the only reason to have a 300-foot-long boat is because they're bigger than 200-foot-long boats.
After 28 years of owning boats, I'm over it.
I am not a yachting person, by nature, but I have just enough experience on the sea under sail to feel a certain nostalgia for it when I see a big white racing yacht heeled over at cruising speed on the ocean, and I can still tie a mean bowline knot on just about anything in less than 10 seconds.
Yachts are the closest a commoner can get to sovereignty.
I'm really inspired to build a billion-dollar company. The hardest part is building the vehicle to get you there.
As soon as you set foot on a yacht you belong to some man, not to yourself, and you die of boredom.
I haven't bought a yacht or an island or even a palm tree.
