    this has to be one of the quickest careers ive seen; quite funny, when i made the pictures of TWINE, they were working on a ship next to here which was Sherakhan.
    Both are for sale after a spectacular introduction and a very short first owner period. (well, technically Sherkhan isnt exactly first owner...)

    Alloy's Tiara officially went up for the sale the day after she was delivered to her owner. Go figure. I guess some people just like planning and building as much as they enjoy sailing/motoring.

    absolutely, but this seems a bit different here since this (dutch) couple's business is the running of a charteroperation itself. They started this because they wanted to be able to host bigger groups (which they previously splitted over two other ships), so somehow it doesnt make sense.

    Looking at the total picture though, i imagine that the project might have be to expensive so maybe this step is taken to satisfy the Rabobank(dutch financer of this project).

    I saw Sherakhan on TV last week, on the UK version of "The Apprentice".
    Sir Alan - the brittish counterpart of Donald Trump - was calling from "his" yacht in the Mediterranean, said the voice-over.
    I suppose they chartered it for the show, or maybe Sir Alan chartered it and they just took some shots for the show (would be an expensive 5 seconds of TV otherwise).
