Forbes Visits Darwin Deason on His 205-Foot Yacht

|

When I wrote about ACS founder Darwin Deason back in 2003, he was building a yacht called Apogee. Now Forbes takes a tour of the thing. Pretty amazing. As is Deason. At 72 years of age, with a wife 27 years his junior, the guy doesn’t seem to slowing down much. I’m particularly fond of the Deason quote that ends the story: “I don’t know of anyone who enjoys their success more than I do. There is little I do that I don’t want to do, and little I don’t do that I want to do.”
