Did ya forget about Valentines Day, or sadly have no Valentine? Well, thanks to fellow Woody Boater Brian Toye for sending in this Top 10 list from Alux.com, which is some sort of company that does these sorts of luxury video things, So I guess they are the final word.

Now of course here at Woody Boater we already knew some of this, and well, they never say that before the Modern Single man bought one of these, he was married. There is no mention of the 5 other boats that modern Single Man may have in the barn.
The title of the video is a tad confusing though. Are we stylish Modern Gentlemen, or Single Gentlemen? Can’t one be both? What about that Pontoon boat you secretly have and love, does that count against you? What if you have a Hacker Racer, but always out in the barn working on it, and always smell like some sort of Varnish concoction? I am so confused. But at least I have the most stylish thing for the Modern Gentleman, a loving and Modern Valentine!

The Boatress, who BTW, will kick Horrics’s ass if he keeps up the Trawler trashing anymore.

Someone should have told her how to pronounce Riva.

You are a lucky man Matt; your wife not only tolerates the wood boat addiction her man has, she also enjoys driving them and (purportedly) can kick a man’s ass.
Some guys have all the luck…
I am lucky too.
Carla
The Boatress is the “BOMB”, total package…Matt is a lucky man! Just sayin..

How about a list for those of us who are not single, not stylish, not modern, and possibly not gentlemen?

I think that list is limited to a Chris-Craft Jet boat.
m-fine
Are you nuts? Only a complete imbecile would buy one of those!
Wilson
Oh come now ! We all know Chris Crafts of any model are the best boats around…The perfect boat for a Valentine gift. …Unless of course your Valentine wants a trawler.
m-fine
As the owner and primary mechanic for the boat pictured, I can assure you it is not one of the best boats around! Maintenance hours exceed functioning hours by around 10-1, and when she is working, with the slightest ripples on the water, she’ll shatter your teeth and send your kidneys on a wild ride between your throat and your ankles.
And no, she is not for sale!

Speaking of pontoon boats, this is our crew trying to get to work! We are working on Cumberland Island in Georgia. They didn’t make it… had to turn back. Weather was okay when they left the dock but deteriorated once out in open water. Finally the national park service as stepped up and will be transporting our plasterers to and from the island on the ferry. Don’t think any of these guys are in the market for pontoon boats.

Crap no video.

And those of us that will never become gazillionairs prefer to maintain our own fleet. Today’s budget does not include flowers but dog treats and sandpaper. Maybe next year Sea-skiffs will make the list. Maybe next year the Android app will work! Gotta have hope.
Rick
With all those bow to aft shots you take underway with the Boatress driving have you ever checked just how much life insurance she’s taken out on you? Maybe start taking those shots from the trawler instead.
m-fine
Rick, either she likes him, or his income potential still exceeds the life insurance payout plus the amount I have offered her to throw it in reverse. The answer should become clear on the first boat ride after he retires.
Bilge Rat
I think it’s time for Matt to purchase an octocopter and take these shots (and videos) from a safer position than on the fore deck at speed. Should be more fun than getting Android app to work!

That video seems to be purely for the consumption of posers who want to live vicariously through electronic media, rather than actually living life.
Troy in ANE
Ya a ” … not single, not stylish, not modern, and possibly not gentlemen?”
Jaxon
Whoever produced that video is clueless. They surely don’t own a real dog. Probably no dog at all or one of those ankle biting yappers at most. They talk like Matt spells. Real gentlemen have a boat on a trailer so their dog can climb under it and take a nap on a hot summer day. I’m gonna take a nap and dream about that Great Dane.

I am so embarrassed that I have been mispronouncing Riva all these years. My apologies to VivaRiva magazine.
