1. a Yacht. This took a long time—26 seconds—for David to draw. At a certain point, you start worrying if you’ve done enough to get the Yachtiness of a thing; boats are easy, but you can’t just tack luxury onto a Big-Ass Boat. Why was this not a 12-second drawing? A helicopter (6 seconds) The word “helicopter”. We’ll get to a Fastest Possible Helicopter soon, but the copter came to me as a plausible detail, and frankly needed a little support. (3 seconds) A wealthy person on deck (2 seconds) The trademark “woo” of casual thrill (3 seconds) The rest is all boat: Boats get water (that’s how it works), and the flag’s there according to maritime law, to which we here at Fastest Possible Drawings always adhere. Quite the stately Fastest Possible Yacht, n’est-ce pas, messieurs? Ahoy!
