If you get two medium-sized ones, your boat will be a catamaran. Sorry.

So it will be a C/Y/S/V ???? then???

Also, please confirm, if cats don't have the BIG (6 family) HOUSE on top, with all the panoramic windows, skylights, domed roof, spiral satirways, and all other good looking things, are they no longer Yachts, also???

We would need for JR to confirm, but I believe those with the big houses on top are known as Penthouse Yachts. Cats without the trimmings are known alternatively as Duplexes.

All this may be true, however, I will continue to refer to MY 22 footer as "44 feet of waterfront property". I never mention the word Yacht. Have you ever stopped at a marina and asked about prices for ANYTHING concerning a Yacht?

Hey G, how they hanging ? Me and Ms Wombat have been plonking about on the boat for a few weeks. Hit the road New Years Eve, too many other people with the same idea but nonetheless good fun and relaxation.

Ms Wombat reckons I am more an RMN rather than an HCN but that's wimmin for you.

Sorry for the misunderstanding, as one of Her Majesty's loyal subjects you can understand my distress at her name being taken in vain. I'll just get back to spinnning around the raj then shall I ?
