    On the Bad Company support, with the new boat, all the crew from the old one are transferring over to the new one. Thus they are heavily looking for a new crew to replace them all on the smaller boat.

    Here is a picture of what I believe to be a shadow Yacht coming in port Everglades a week or so ago.

    That’s Game Changer, Yacht Support 6911 which was converted to a more explorer yacht layout. The last of her kind.

    You get a glimpse of what some of the interior of the new SeaXplorer 58 will look like. It was designed by Design Unlimited.

    PINK SHADOW has reached St. Maarten during dawn on Nov 30th. And has obtained a special bridge opening outside the normal hours for an instant passage into the lagoon. The idea for using louvers for the windows on the lower decks towards the stern is something different, also by using a contrasting color. :)

    I would love to see photos of the interior. Especially, after the designers in this Damen marketing video are making a reference to the wonderful movie FITZCARRALDO of Werner Herzog which was part of their inspiration. But unfort to no avail...

    We had quite some activity here during last Friday with SY KORU and her support MY ABEONA stopping by on their way from St. Thomas to Saint-Barthélemy. The nearby local airport facilities had been used for the transfer process of guests from the jet to the chopper to ABEONA via limosine tender to the mother ship.
    After KORU had left ABEONA was staying around for a little longer and it came to a nice encounter between the YS75 and the SeaXplorer 58 with PINK SHADOW leaving Simpson Bay full steam ahead (nice back wash) towards the other Damen unit ...

    You posted it in another thread just for Pink Shadow whereas this is really for the support vessels than the sea axe series.
