Nice video of Serene in Seattle: SERENE Mega Yacht at Dusk in Seattle on 8-23-13 HD - YouTube The one feature of Serene I have never seen in photos or video is the central section of its transom lowered to open its internal pool to the sea, like in Octopus, and it seems to be there.
I found it absurd that Washington state charges a 10% tax on any yacht from another state or country if it stays in port for more than 60 days. So, that's the maximum you can stay in places like Seattle. I wonder whether other states have similar ridiculous taxes.

Y.CO pics gone Serene is off of that site. Does anybody have any links (or copies) of those great interior pics? I would think that they are still out in the public somewhere.
Real nice photo of Serene leaving Norway. There's some more on the ship spotting. Serene - IMO 1010090 - Callsign ZGBA9 - ShipSpotting.com - Ship Photos and Ship Tracker
My folks winter down in Cabo San Lucas. She sent me a text today letting me know that "Serene" is moored right off The Office in Cabo. I guess it's now Mexico's Newport Beach.
Seems like "Serene" was sold to an arab owner and as for confirmation she arrived in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia recently.
I do not know as it was not announced offically but I guess it was sometime this year. I also read she was sold for 350 Million euros but I guess this is rather speculative.
I have heard that Serene is not sold actually,it was a chartering deal which was covering also some maintenance work .She is currently in Malta
The 4/2016 edition of the yachting magazine "boote EXCLUSIV" has big feature stories about Serene, Yersin and Madame Kate with very nice internal and external pictures.
No, new pictures about a journey to Alaska. That yacht has really some crazy features like a jacuzzi on a side wing on the owner deck and this drive in salt water pool / beach club at the stern. On such a big boat, there is really some volume to spoil for a designer. But no layout of Serene.
As some of you know Serene was purchased and taken to the Netherlands for a refit. A recent photo shows that the aft pool area with the lounge beds have been removed and turned into a helicopter pad. In my honest opinion it should of stayed a pool area.. Looks different.
Oh really I had no idea. I always thought it was a stationary pool area. Well if that is true I've never seen that like it before. If you want to see photos you can go to Instagram and look up dutchyachting or you can do it through google "dutchyachting instagram" and you'll see some photos.
