So, the Missus and I were down at the Bay the other day when this beauty caught my eye - I right-away thought - although it was as big as a Battleship - that it must be a private vessel. I took some shots, then we ducked into a dockside Bistro and asked the Barista what she knew about it. Well, she had the whole run-down - belongs to Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich... the Luna - Expedition Super Yacht... 115 meters, 400 million bucks, helipads, pool, spa, speedboats (stowed internally), yada-yada-yada. Yes, I was somewhat impressed :D. Google revealed that this is his "little" one - the big one, the Eclipse ($1.5 billion), was moored in NYC. WaveRunners for scale....

    I always say I want the chance to show that having a lot of money wouldn't change me. :D

    Filthy? Maybe so... this dude has been accused of various nefarious acts (allegedly of course) - can a individual accumulate billions of dollars and not get their hands dirty? ne_nau.gif

    Ah hem...(throat clearing sound) Cristóbal, please do not call this vessel a boat - it is a SUPER YACHT.deal.gif:D
    Also, do I detect a note of sarcasm here? You are thinking I don't have my own yacht? Hmmm...no invitation for you...rolleyes1.gif
