    Yep, it's "Limitless" in the background. Off the top of my head I think she is about 317 feet or so, '97 build.

    And just incase you are not sure what's in the background of the above photo, it's the 174-foot "Silver Shalis". Built by Delta Marine in 2010.

    Hi,

    Funny that the name Silver Shalis should end up in the Abeking thread by accident.

    The previous boat of the same name was an Abeking and Rasmussen vessel.

    Hi,

    Don't believe everything you read on the internet.

    I am led to believe it is coming along just fine and will be making an appearance as scheduled in the contract.

    Well Mr. K1W1 so do I assume right when I say that 6493 is the 82,3m Sam Sorgiovanni design managed by Burgess? Another website states her delivery in May 2013... that means a launch in February/March would be logically would it not?
    She is scheduled to be the successor to the Feadship "Secret, that sounds interesting especially when you consider that she has been extensively featured and is/ was (?)offered for charter!
    I know owners can change their mind but I think the renderings suggest a beautiful yacht worthy to get featured.

    She looks like all the other (well, two) projects that he has designed.

    I just saw on photos that "Titan" got a new transom door (sorry what is the correct term in english?)... it is now vertical and not curved like on her sisters so she has now a bigger bathing platform! I wonder if she still owns the by A&R patented tender launching system as her garage is now slightly smaller? The conversion was obviously done at MB92 in Barcelona. However I like it!

    That actually looks great on..."TITAN" ...I think it gives the stern more character. I agree with your query...But looking carefully at it...I believe the A&R tender handling system is still in there but with reduced space. Look at the door, it is practically on the perpendicular so I really do not think THAT much space was lost in the garage because not many things could have been stored in the area where the angled transom door was.

    Hi,

    Titan has never had stern launched Tenders, she is the first Abeking vessel to have a Tender Garage forward on the Main Deck.

    You know that is true! Now I think on it. "C2", "Eminence" for sure have stern garages with the tender cradle system by A&R. "Amaryllis" may very well have the forward garages too...I vaguely remember...seeing a photo with it opened and a brown limo in it.

    Amaryllis and Titan have the tenders stored in the bow.

    Hi,

    You might want to take another look at them, the tenders are in what was Section 4 during hull build, they are aft of the bow by some distance

    I just think he meant in the forward area of the hull and not necessarily the bow itself.
