I have an uncle who has a business dealing with a lot of local boat companies. He is friends with of the owners of the companies who invited him to use his boats on weekend while they were in Grand Isle. Unbelievable is all I have to say. His boat was a 62' sportfisher (I believe.... actually forget who made it as I couldn't make the actual fishing trip) with full crew. What was impressive was the "chase" boat. A bad arse house boat whose interior was wayyy nicer than my house. Had crew quarters in the back wing. Had his own chef that stayed on the house boat. 26' Regulator that stayed on top the house boat to use as a scouting boat. Basically this guy just continuously moved his "chase boat/house boat" around the world to the best fishing destinations, slept on it and used it to fuel his 62' sportfisher, then ran his "fast" boat to go fishing. Talk about living the life. Every once in a while, I feel like I have made it and am living rather comfortably (for a middle class guy), then I think of those people and realize I'm a peon compared.

This is more than likely the setup you are thinking of. The madam spends a lot of her time in Grand Isle, and the hooker mainly fishes out of Hawaii now, but comes to the GOM during a couple of the summer months.
