Title: Which is the most beautiful or coolest water craft?
Post by: Willmutt on September 02, 2009, 16:45:32: Which boat or ferry in the hole world do you think is the most beautiful or coolest?
Add up what you think and maybe with some pics of it :)

I think Wally yachts do the most beautiful yachts, very modern and sofisticated!
Especially the Wally 118 ;D

Here is some pics, the three latest is of Wally 118..
