That’s a “yacht?” Not down here in Trump Boat Parade Country it’s not.

I thought the same. This from Wikipedia:

A yacht is a sailing or power vessel used for pleasure, cruising, or racing. There is no standard definition, though the term generally applies to vessels with a cabin intended for overnight use. To be termed a yacht, as opposed to a boat, such a pleasure vessel is likely to be at least 33 feet (10 m) in length and may have been judged to have good aesthetic qualities.

It’s pronounced yatch’t, but it’s spelled Throat Warbler Mangrove.

Yeah that was my first impression too. You’re calling that a “yacht”? No its not. Its just a little sailboat. Yachts must have multiple cabins - ones you can fully stand up in. To be a “yacht” it would need to be at least 5 times the size of that little thing at a bare minimum.
