    Millions of $$$ poured into this hull the last few decades in hull and house extensions. Massive million $$+ interior refits and the likes but you NEVER see photos of the engine room or mechanical spaces and rarely does a broker ever mention that this yacht is powered by very rare main engines (by marine standards) Mirrlees Blackstone E series engines usually found in locomotives or Dreadnaughts of the first world war British navy but a rarity on yachts for sure. Parts are scarce but available in the UK, but this 42-year-old girl should have been repowered a couple of decades ago.

    I'm a big fan of EMD installs.
    I found a corny YouTube PR vid on Mirrlees Blackstone.
    Poor kid pouring the molt iron was the high of the vid.
