John Kerry always wears make-up. That’s why Howie Carr labeled him “Live Shot”.
LOL!!!
“No tax please, we’re Democrats.”
all boat owners strive to avoid such taxes.
Kerry just proved that low or no taxes are good for the ecconomy. More yatchs in state, more docks, more people to service boats, more restaurants, more industry to make boats, etc etc.
Q. How many bottles of ketchup to you have to sell to make $500,000?
Good catch...
It will be interesting to see what yarn he tells if someone asks him that very question. While it's probably true the ship was undergoing extensive sea trials, which would be the case in any semi-custom yacht, especially when she's the first model of a series.
And, it's also true that stenciling the name of the homeport is not done for vanity, but because the USCG regulations demand it. This ship is of the size that it's an inspected and documented vessel, and the homeport designation is part of the documentation process. Since the builder is located in Newport, that's where the ship would be originally documented.
BUT - there's always a BUT - the USCG does not require that builders operating vessels for reasonable sea trials and for reasonable periods of time, stencil the yacht's homeport on the transom. Why? Because well over 90% of the documented yachts that are built in America, are actually operated under a foreign flag. So, because a US builder would fly a US flag during trials, the Coast Guard doesn't want a "Georgetown" (which is a Cayman port) port stencil directly under a US flag. If "Newport" was stenciled on the yacht's transom, then that his PRECISELY what the owner wanted stenciled on the transom.
Bush's Fault
“Liveshot” suddenly discovers he doesn’t like cameras and publicity after all.....
What a bozo — of course he thought he could get away with not paying the $500K
Does he think we were all born yesterday???
In the case of Mass. liberals he knew his audience.....
So...
1) He is a hypocrite.
2) He is an idiot.
3) He thinks I am an idiot.
Well said, my FRiend!
Excellent!
OldDeckHand totally nails Ultra-Phoney Kerry!

The pics of the Friendship 75 undergoing trials in NZ have been removed from Fontaine’s website.
I guess someone was feeling the heat; they removed the entire news ‘article’ about the boat being finished.
Good work, NN, proof of the airbrushing.
Would he be backtracking so quickly if a few Dem seats weren’t vulnerable in Nov?
