Peter McKee has created something very cool that I guarantee you have never seen or even imagined before: a 21-foot long speedboat billiards table. Created for a client, the seven pocket table is literally a modified boat with a pool table on top of it, not just a pool table in a costume.
The table also has a ball return system like most pool tables -- this one just ends up at the tail end of the boat where the engine should be. The table was created as a tribute to Brian Rix, a water skier who was killed in a boating accident in 1999. Notable cause or not, I want my own speedboat billiards table!
