Looks like it got sprayed by a fireboat. Is that mast laying on its stbd. rail attached to a burned sailboat by any chance?
Who buys a 100' yacht and expects privacy? Every where Ive been anything bigger than a raft must be registered in some way for public Identification.
With most larger yacht the owners name will be burried under possibly several corporations and holding companies. Of course anything you want to know can be found out today, but YF's policy is out of courtesy to the boat owners and YF members (often one in the same).
Literally and figuratively, Tiger Woods for one; reference his charge and litigation against Christensen. It‘s a security issue more than anything else. You do your best to mitigate your exposure, but at the same time you try not to impede the enjoyment of what quite likely is your single most expensive possession - far more costly than any one of your residences. However, today’s entertainment and business press, along with our own inquisitive minds make it difficult to maintain “sub rosa”. This forum offers a refreshing alternative to tabloid press, it’s not a question of who swings the biggest… anchor… its a knowledge bank that makes us all, just a litter better; while entertaining the heck out of us.
How about this one? Man this baby was awesome What would this be worth with chopper and skiff? Here's the video I took of her in Mexico a couple of weeks ago........ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7S4zGQb9ZI
Welcome Edward... You may further enjoy Vango, right here: http://www.yachtforums.com/forums/westport-yacht/5319-review-westports-new-164-vango.html
By the way Edward, Westport (the company that built the yacht you pictured) built seven others! The latest was recently launched called "Wabi Sabi", she is the eighth in the Westport 164 series. The "Vango" is the first in the series. Welcome Edward.
Port Canto, this evening... I caught a glimpse of her a couple weeks ago. Just by chance I am back in Cannes this evening and had to run straight to her to snap off a couple shots. No one on board, I hope to learn more tomorrow. In the meantime; Can anyone identify her ??
Yea me too or the sub 100 model....after seeing 135s and 150s all the time it is kinda hard to get scale for the 120 now.
No I am not saying that the yacht pictured is a 135 I am just saying that harder to scale a 120 now with the larger models that are on offer now.
Y/N, all good champ, I'm just trying to narrow it down too, and the suggestion was more for the guys who might not be up on the PJ designs. Cheers Far
It looks really close to the PJ120 pics on their website, but not exactly. Some things are off (portals don't match up) but that's easily explainable. On the other hand, the proportions of the windows and the proportions of the foredeck seem odd. Could be the particular photo I suppose... not sure.
Kevin, the proportions have me beat as well, portholes are different, and everything forward from the windows make it seem smaller, maybe it's the 3/4 angle... possible it's a new model...? AffrayedKnot, sorry mate, you'll have bring out the old tape measure Far
OK my friends, here's the intel... Her name is "Magnum Force" she was built as a one-off at Altinel Shipyard in Turkey in 2005. 26.83m/88ft 6.17m/20.24ft (2) MTU 10V 2000 M93 (2) France Helices SDS Drives 3 SRs 2 Crew Cabins GRP RINA Top photo - as she was delivered in 2006 Lower photo - as she is today
