I can only guess it's mocking the NC for being fat compared to the other generations?
Or was he able to recognize the dash from that photo? I can see an E36 BMW in the picture but no NC Miata.
The most GRM would be if that boat had a Miata chassis powering it down the road.

I was hoping the boat had North Carolina registration. Berkeley.

Yeah, a certain subset of the Miata community mocks the NC mercilessly for being a big boat. To the point of printing up copies of the official t-shirts for the Miata Reunion event where the outline of the NC was replaced with a yacht.
This was actually pretty funny.

It's a meme over at Miata Reddit. But lots of folks who make the joke don't actually hate the NC.
