Annals of Enormity 3–Size Matters: At least to Joe Vittoria, former Chairman and CEO of Avis. He’s just launched the largest sailing sloop ever built, Mirabella V, which measures in at a “does anyone really need a boat this big?” 246 feet and 8 inches. The numbers are ridiculous. M5 is almost 100 feet longer than the next largest super-sloop, has a mast that is 300 feet high, and when Vittoria is not aboard getting his jollies from having the biggest hull in the harbor she’ll charter for a mere $200,000 a week. We’re talking excess, excess, excess. Do you think this guy drives a Hummer?

Mother of God, that thing is HUGE…..
