    I just watched that video all the way thru,...and I was quite surprised that the yacht "Maltese Falcon" was never mentioned. That vessel was the true ground breaker for many of the ideas used on BP.

    I know the manager of Black Pearl, he's ex- Royal Navy. Let's just say he drives an Aston Martin now, not a ratterly old Land Rover!

    Dykstra...... He was a rock star growing up in Holland in the 70's. But like "Hargrave" today I don't know how much of his talent is still behind the name, however that is a very pretty boat. I bet she will move quite nicely.
