Where'd My Boat Go?
Elise explains how she came to live aboard a 70 foot yacht - against her better judgement - only to have it sunk, on purpose, by the man she thought loved her. It was all part of a scam even she found hard to believe. She’s under an NDA so she needs to be careful, but she’s got to tell her story. SHADY RAYS Thanks, Shady Rays.
