Updated

The 82-year-old former owner of Tim Hortons, Ron Joyce, is dropping the price of his 49-metre luxury super yacht up for sale. Dubbed the 'Destination Fox Harb'r Too,' the yacht can be yours for just $19.95 million, a steal compared to the $30 million Joyce paid for it in 2008. The yacht has been on the market for two years now, but has just been dropped in price again in hopes of generating some new attention.
