Friends of the parents built that. Pretty incredible onboard.

The owner has ordered a second to be built ( ordered before the first was completed ) called Starfish.

The reason the boat is called Big Fish is because of the movie. The storyline from the movie is based on the owners father.

That's really interesting. Thanks for sharing.

Not quite. I know the owner's father, and he has nothing to do with the movie. The owner originally set up in business with the author's father.

Hoping to see Big Fish in the flesh some time.

Oh cool, so the book is about his business partner?

Obviously misheard him.

slightly OT but how do these yachts with ranges of only 300 miles (seems the norm) get from sea-to-sea?
