2 for 1? I would probably have to eat every meal, every day at his restaurant for 20 years to break even for the cost of my SMB.

How about 2 for 1 of his Land Shark ale instead? I could break even in a year or two!

OK pretty cool Jonathan, but I prefer my bass boat. I'd fall off one of those boards But finally some proof of the stealth vehicle.

Jimmy are you out there

Re: Photos of Jimmy Buffett's new Sportsmobile

I was at SMB west yesterday and was told that JB placed an order for 4 more SMB's to apparently use in an upcoming tour. The folks at SMB said he is the nicest guy you'd want to meet.

This must be his private plane he flew into Fresno to visit the SMB facility. They said he flew in on his private jet, and a quick search shows this as the only jet he owns.


Life doesn't suck when you're Jimmy!

Re: Photos of Jimmy Buffett's new Sportsmobile

Four more? Is he trying to challenge the Qatar search and rescue people for the most SMBs?

Did you notice the shark-fin on the jet? Looks like a JB logo to me. Somehow I doubt his jet runs on biodiesel or WVO.

Last I knew he also had a seaplane.

No, it would not suck to be JB.

Re: Photos of Jimmy Buffett's new Sportsmobile

That's a Dassault Falcon 900, nice piece of hardware.
It is a descendant of the Falcon 50, intercontinental range at Mach 0.85.

It's no Gulfstream, but it is still very nice...

Re: Photos of Jimmy Buffett's new Sportsmobile

Here's his sea plane. Looks like he also has a smaller float plane (Cessna) and a bi-plane.

Good grief!
I didn't know life in Margaritaville was so remunerative.

Ah yes.... As the man sez at many of his concerts - "I'm spending your money foolishly".
Not that I think planes and SMBs are foolish, he's the man.
