Luxury super-yacht industry booming! Baby yachts (under 30 meters)? 
Pathetic. Can't give 'em away. 

But grownup yachts (60+ meters)? Now, _there's_ a boat! Luxury super 
yacht builders around the world report huge demand for their products, 
Britain, Spain, Italy, Turkey (not the U.S., though).

Leading yacht insurer estimates that the market for boats bigger than 
twenty meters has grown from about 800 in 1990 to *30,000* today.

Whee! We're in the money!
