As a boy, while his friends fantasized about cars and comic books, Leonard Gentieu dreamed of owning a yacht.
Today, after a four-year search and a lifetime of being a restaurant owner, manager and chef, his dream came true eight years ago in the form of a restored 72-foot Burger motor yacht named Papagallo II.
“She loves going out in the open sea and throwing the throttles to her.” says Gentieu, who owns the boat with his wife Midge.
Together, they run a luxury charter cruise business on California’s Morro Bay.
