Yay for the two boatloads of money. I'm trying to decide if "two" is better than the more common "boatloads." The plural form implies "two or more" whereas specifying two leaves one with the impression that the other boatloads have been withheld. Yet again, the image of more than one boat full of money -- or even one boat, alone -- is to imagine an awful lot of money. But what if the boat was filled with pennies? Would you really want two loads in that case?
