3 Hour Tour Anyone?


Official site of the Vancouver International Boat Show | Vancouver, British Columbia

The memorable S.S. Minnow, the 40’ cruiser that served as the centerpiece of the sitcom, will be onsite at BC Place for the duration of the Boat Show for attendees to see. Thanks to her new owners from Quality Foods, the SS Minnow has undergone a complete restoration to ensure her beauty and seaworthiness are reminiscent of the era the vessel represents.

Oh, and Mary Ann will be there too.

Too bad Quality Foods couldn’t restore Mary Ann to her 1960’s equivalent beauty and seaworthiness. She was hot.

Have you read up on the history of the Minnow? I think I'll pass on that boat. I'm not normally a superstitious guy, but that boat has got some bad mojo.

Mary Ann still looks pretty good for her age.

She has changed from the girl next door to the mom next door though. Nothing wrong with that.

Grandmom next door. Considering she's 75 , she has aged pretty well.

I was wandering around the Martinez pier a few weeks ago and someone has a small boat they named the Pequod. I tried to snap a pic with the cellphone but was too far away for it to come out.

There aren't very many names that I'd automatically rule out, but Pequod would be on that list!

If that's the case, think about how great they would look if they hadn't.

Weed, not meth.

I know its difficult for you to see the difference, but rest assured, there is a enormous one.
Meth is what makes a 22 year old woman look 45 and causes her teeth to rot out of her head, among other more severe side effects.

Maryann looks better than most 75 year old women
