I would love to spend some time on one of these boats and i think they are a great idea. It brings back memories of old films you used to watch, with old river boats floating down the Mississippi

That puts a different slant to 'on the rocks'. Sounds cool though...a casino ship floating (generally) off the shores of Goa. Lovely temperatures and no doubt lovely guys and gals doing the business at the dealers decks and making this experience a truly wonderful one.... apart from when the ship runs aground of course!

funny thing those floating casinos are... once it becomes illegal it just sails away... to another place where it is legal and same dudes are just informed about relocation and can safely continue to lose their cash at rigged games.
