Boston – A 43-foot-long yacht named Maggie Mae blocked traffic on Summer Street in Downtown Boston Wednesday afternoon. The boat is owned by Robert A. Vincent, president of the Worcester-based David Clark Company, which, among other things, makes gear for astronauts. It was manufactured by Hinckley Yachts. Phil Bennett, vice president of sales for The Hinckley Company, told Boston.com that the boat in question is a 43-foot ‘Talaria’ that had just been completed. “She was headed to the New England Boat Show,” Bennett explained. “She’ll be on display there.” Bennett said there’s a misconception about how New Englanders handle snow. “People think because we have snow we don’t do anything,” he said. “Those of us that live and work here—we’re building and moving boats right through the winter.

 

I know Feitleberg already blogged this yesterday, but I had to chime in real quick. Let me say this loud and clear. I don’t like Phil Bennett. The guy who sold this boat and is quoted as saying there is a misconception about how New Englanders handle show. Bro what are you talking about? There is snow and then there is 500 feet of snow like we got now. There is literally nowhere to move or drive. The t is fucking broken. Downtown Boston is a mess. So to try and lug a 43 foot boat through the city today is pure insanity. That’s the shit that gives rich people like me and you a bad name. Like we don’t care about poor people. Just apologize, admit it was thoughtless and vow never to do it again. Don’t lecture us about how New Englanders handle snow. FUCK YOU. We are New Englanders you dickhead. That’s whose traffic you snarled today by being a colossal jerk and then acting like you did nothing wrong. I hope somebody key’d the shit out of the Maggie May
