Name of Buffetts's Boat

My friend was down the Jersey shore late last week and saw a boat named Margaritaville and was wondering if this was Jimmy's since he had a concert in Camden early this week. She said it had a palm tree in the back of it and it was fairly large, actually almost like a yacht. Anyone know if it was Jimmy's? Thanks.

All I can say is if Jimmy was at the shore and did not call me to go sailing I'm more than a little upset! :wink:

Which marina was the boat ? My friend's boat is named "Margaritaville", but it's no yacht. Also the registeration numbers on the bow will start w/the state and then a series of numbers, NJ 12345. The stern will show the name and port of origin. Such as "Margaritaville" Key West Florida

I believe one of his boats he keeps in Sag harbor is called Continental Drifter

Wasn't JB wearing a "Continental Drifter" shirt in the backstage extras portion of the new Wrigley DVD?

His Hinckley sailboat is named Chill (as seen in the video at shows last year)

I think you would be more likely to see a Falcon Jet belonging to Jimmy at the airport :wink:

Jimmy doesn't own a boat called Margaritaville. He's got a bunch, but none that are named that.

Continental Drifter II is docked in Sag Harbor...we saw it on Monday :-) It has a pic of sharks swimming on top, and about 10 surfboards hangin in the back. :D We saw a dude waxing the boards Monday afternoon!

Gone Fishing!
The new 42 Rybovich Express Walkaround is the result of Jimmy Buffett’s passion for fishing and Rybovich’s desire for a semi-custom build

Thank you all for all of your posts, they were very helpful. Needless to say my friend will be very disappointed to hear it was not his boat.

I have no boat-related comments, but holy crap, NYCPORT, your avatar is hysterical.

Yes, he was wearing a Continental Drfiter shirt in the back-stage portion of the DVD. I believe he was climbing stares at the time we saw it the most. ...and I've only watched the DVD once, so I could be wrong.
