Tiki boat in Newport Beach CA

Just a little post for those unusual tiki themed things you see every now and then. I went whale watching last weekend from Newport Beach, CA. There was this Tiki boat called the "Tiki II" and yes, it is for parties, etc. Thought you guys might like a little look.

ARRRR...what manner o' seafarin' craft is this I asks meself? One end almost looks like a ferry, the other like a barge. I'd be interested in having a look at the interior (does it have a tiki bar?). The black swans and white plastic lawn chairs are a nice touch, although I think I would have gone with pelicans and rataan myself.

I've been on that boat a couple of times for wedding parties and other 'formal type' events. it's kinda a sh*tty boat. The upstairs deck thing is more of a walkway big enough for one person to pass at a time. There's a bar inside but nothing worth mentioning. The pictures that are posted here are the best thing going for it.

And to think Thor Heyerdahl crossed the Pacific in that pig! Wow.

Back to my green Mai Tai.

It may be a shitty looking party boat but it's doing a lot better than this one down in Florida...

The Crazy World of Arthur Brown decided to play one last party before they retired. God bless their pointy little heads!

I thought it looked like another Great White Concert.

I saw it today taking the Ferry over to Balboa Island.

Happy St. Patrick's Day.
