Tyler Durden Posted June 19, 2003 Share Posted June 19, 2003 ...........if everyone on 12oz stole alot and put all their existing cash together.............................................................................no....we still couldnt afford it. although, it would be pretty funny to have a 12oz aircraft carrier and throw teaser overboard. score.

Guest imported_El Mamerro Posted December 29, 2003 Share Posted December 29, 2003 Bump, cause I read somewhere that the carrier's final destination is going to be the scrap yards, cause all deals to private customers fell through. What a fucking shame... if I had the money, I'd jump at this thing immediately. Holy shit, imagine the boat parties we would throw... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest HESHIANDET Posted December 29, 2003 Share Posted December 29, 2003 im skeptical, this shit is 7.9 mil and its only 142 feet. yahm saying. http://newimages.yachtworld.com/1/0/3/7/4/1037443_1.jpg'> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S@T@N Posted December 29, 2003 Share Posted December 29, 2003 Yeah man but the key is that's a luxury liner... when you downgrade from carpets and oak to steel grating and sheet metal, I think you lose a lot of the cover price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest imported_El Mamerro Posted December 29, 2003 Share Posted December 29, 2003 Yeah, but that shit is blinged out to no extent everywhere around it. This aircraft carrier is probably thug as fuck and completely grimey, with like piles of dead sea rats and abandoned clothes, all rusty and shit. It's total military barebones, all steel, no frills, hardwood veneer or marble. To get that shit even halfway party-ready would probably be at least $10-15M more. I don't even wanna think how much it'll cost to fill the gas tank (though at a range of 12,000 nautical miles, I don't think it'd happen often). Also, there really aren't many buyers for a World War 2 aging carrier, it really doesn't do anything that most modern boats already do better, they gotta offer it at a bargain. It probably costs them a bundle just to keep the damn thing afloat. This is literally just a giant, useless hunk of steel on the water, just waiting for a rich guy to come to his senses and rock the fuck out proper.

Guest HESHIANDET Posted December 29, 2003 Share Posted December 29, 2003 im not saying having that thing done up proper or not at all wouldn't be the illest shi tin the world. but i'd rather have the pimp shit i posted. and if i did you beter believe i'd be riding around the beaches and harbor of monaco or some shit on a jet ski collecting fne ass models and ferrying them onto my yacht for a quick jaunt to international waters to break some laws governing sex.

Guest imported_El Mamerro Posted December 29, 2003 Share Posted December 29, 2003 Pssh, cmon dude, don't front like a fucking AIRCRAFT CARRIER doesn't completely destroy a luxury yacht with its intrinsic pimpness alone... Man, while Mr. Luxury rolls up in his dopey jet ski on the beach, macking on models, I fucking land a SEAPLANE right next to him and completely ruin his shit. He'll be like "Hey there young lady, would you care to join me for some Courvoisier, dinner, and party favors on my yacht?", and I'll be like "Yo, you wanna do lines off my fucking tarmac? My ship holds over 4,000 tons of cargo". It's over, man. And dude: Catapult: 1 Mactaggart Scott C – 3 steam powered 8.5 degree launch You can't find a better way to break sex laws with that kind of technological marvel around. Oh, and if I bought that carrier, it would ALSO have "hesh nigger what" on its side, regardless of my being Hesh or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
