Editor & Publisher of Lakeland Boating Gives Feedback
on Recent Hargrave Tour
Bing O’Meara, Editor & Publisher of Lakeland Boating, recently came to South Florida to catch the premiere of the all new 76′ Hargrave flush deck ANA C before she began her trip south to her home port in Puerto Rico. O’Meara called the new ANA C “a pocket megayacht” and said the four stateroom plus crew layout was a real accomplishment in the under 80′ category. O’Meara selected the yacht for the cover of Lakeland Magazine in the December issue.
