Why buy a yacht or sailboat when you can motor around in the most [luxurious dinghy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yacht-tender) on the high seas, the 'Pama T40.' This dinghy was designed by Pama Architetti as an upscale alternative to the mundane [motorboat](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chill-series) that many dinghies have become.

The dinghy used to be commonplace transportation until Pama Architetti came along. The 'Pama T40' is bigger than conventional dinghies and has [luxurious living quarters below deck](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blatto-boat).

**Implications** - The 'Pama T40' is the exact reason why I want to work hard and be rich: I want to own this boat. It is, in my mind, the perfect sailboat.
