65′ Neptunus, the video

by on Jan.23, 2012, under Boats, FeelGood Girls

While doing a photo shoot for ‘Dock Holiday’, we saw this beautiful 65 foot Neptunus. One of the spectators at the photo shoot asked us if we would like to do a shoot on the ‘Lush Us’. Since we are always looking for ways to put beautiful women on beautiful boats, we said ‘sure’. What follows is the result. We we have the photos from the shoot shortly, but get a sneak peak by checking it out here.

Can’t be better than my way

by on Jan.05, 2012, under Music

Back in the old days, Fast Freddy was a professional musician. About 12 years ago, we record an original song which was written by my sons girlfriend. We were traveling 3 weeks out of each month so this was our ‘driving song’. We finally got around to making a music video since we are starting to do more video’s. Thought you might like it so enjoy.

A little romance to end the day


For those of you who have been living in the Jacksonville area for awhile may remember a little fish camp and restaurant called Oscars. It was a great place to have lunch and watch the boats on the intracoastal and the airplanes at St. Augustine Restaurant. It burned down many years ago and only the fish camp remained.

 

 

 

The cat was the boss at the fish camp and it still is.

 

 

 

 

 

The Restaurant has been completely rebuilt and is now called Aunt Kates.  They kept some of the good features of Oscars such as great food at inexpensive prices and fantastic views and wrapped all of that in a very friendly building and deck.

 

 

 

 

 

Entering the restaurant, you will see the bar area to the right.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
You can sit inside or outside on the deck. On the weekends, they have entertainment and he was so good, I actually gave him a tip.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The back Deck is the place to be.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
By leaving the trees, they kept a nice feature that was also part of Oscars.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
With the fish camp right there, you can get to Aunt Kates by either boat or car.

 

 

 

 

 

 
The best part of Aunt Kates is having dinner, a drink and a great sunset. Kind of a triple threat.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
End the day with a little romance and you can’t ask for a better place to enjoy the Florida Lifestyle.

My Kind of Yacht

by on Nov.08, 2011, under Boats

In all my 40 years of boating, This is probably the neatest boat I have ever seen. We received this from Sorry Dog which scares me just a little. I think we may be looking at his next project.

This yacht was designed by UK based Yacht Island Design. Instead of bringing a boat to an island, they brought the island to the boat.

The design is inspired by tropical islands, with huts, a pool and to top of that, a whole volcano. Since this is a yacht, it comes packed with special VIP rooms, arcades, gym, lounges, spas and even a helipad.

The volcano adds a lot of beauty to the whole look of the yacht, it also happens to have water flowing out of it onto the pool creating this amazing river complementing the whole tropical look.

The back of the yacht has a retractable beach deck where structures float on the sea making the sea accessible to swim in and of course grant access to various water activities such as wake boarding and jet-skis. The whole concept is pure genius and the result looks even better.

Dangerous

by on Nov.02, 2011, under Weapons

This video is a little different than our normal ones but I think its important to see how much can be hidden on the (curvy) human body. This would be excellent for providing a deterrent to the ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’
