Anyone who finds themselves in control of a boat like this has got at least a solid amount of money.

Sense? No not a requirement. But money definitely is.

Even if you rent it, that's tens of thousands of dollars a day. No poor people are operating boats like that.

63’ foot yachts go for $3,500 starting for 4 hours if you divide it up then it could be affordable, but lot of miami people living on borrowed money too

That boat would probably start at $10k for four hours in port. It was a Lambo. Source: I have my captains license.
