    Does anyone have more info about MY "Bakhshish" formerly Oceana C, Kremlin Princess, Merlin, Little Sis? I´m surprised that there is so little information about such a beautiful vessel. The webiste lacks info also. Anyone know who the owner is?

    Hi GIG and welcome to the Forums!

    Most yacht owners have their yachts as a private resort and often want the ownership to remain private as well. As you could see on the website of the yacht, you can e-mail directly and ask them for the info you want; http://www.bakhshish.com/bakhcontacts.html

    She is a nice yacht, I was onboard when she first came to Antibes as Oceana. Only negative thing is that the crew can not move around inside without walking through the salon´s or through the engine room. (If nothing has been changed?).

    The yacht is moored at the Club de Mar in Palma, Mallorca, Spain.

    Here are some photos of her, which I wanted to share with everyone, from the last time I had the pleasure of being aboard. This was back when she was under the name "Merlin" in Gibraltar.

    :) Thanks for the close-up shots, there aren't to many pictires of her on the web, she deffenitly is a pretty one, if I'm correct a John Bannenberg design and has a lenght of 53.5m, correct me if I'm wrong ;)

    Nope, it is a Bannenberg design. With a Phil Curran hull, which is interesting in that she reminds of, and also performs pretty much as, a sailing yacht hull.
