Sucks for sure......after reading about his "Checkered" financial past it makes one wonder about circumstances around the sinking.....how convenient that he was in Bora Bora when it happened :rolleyes

This boat use to be slipped at Callville Bay at Lake Mead, when the GF and I had our place at Callville we walked the docks all the time, Wayne's boat was ALWAYS filthy and chained up, he NEVER paid his slip fees, we never saw him use the boat either. One day we see guys cleaning the boat and the chains were gone, he paid up for the missed year of fees and away it went to Temple Bar. We had heard he sold it to Pratt but that never materialized. A friend was with Randy Davis last weekend and said Davis laughed when the pic was sent to him, said basically saw this coming, boat was never maintained just sat there unused. I guess it caused quite a bit of damage to the docks and roofs.

Just read the report in the LVJ, that's funny shit, that boat was NEVER clean and NEVER maintained, good shit!!

Not saying I know Wayne Newton but I have met him numerous times and hung out with him. My ex was very close to him, at her bachelorette party he serenaded her on stage and escorted her and her GF's all around LV with his old body guard "Bear" . He's a very humble and nice man, however he never really understood finances, LOL. Dude made gazillions and is broke so too speak, he's not but he's not where he should be. He is losing his beloved "Shenandoah" his estate, he's lost his jet and now the boat. Sucks to be him, LOL!!
