    Hi Wadadli,

    I must agree with you, erica is a beautiful yacht. I don't usually take pictures of sailing vessels(unless they exceed 200ft.)but erica was soo stunning, that i had to take a fews shots of it.
    Unfortunately, i only took two (2) sorry!

    History In Antigua's Yachting Industry Made Today

    Today, We Are Lucky To Have With Us The 438ft Mega Yacht Al Mirqab In Port. She Is Now Concluding Her Journey, After Being In Our Waters Since Christmas Eve....with Very Notable Guests Such As, The Prime Minister Of A European/asian Territory. He Will Be Departing The Country Today, Where A Helicopter Will Be Transporting Him To The Fbo, Where He Will Be Boarding His Private Jet.
    among Al Mirqab, Antigua Has Played Host To Numerous Mega Yachts, With Pelorus And Le Grand Bleu Topping That List At 377ft And 370ft Respectively; therefore, The Berthing Of Al Mirqab Makes Her The Biggest Yacht To Have Ever Come To Antigua.

    This Is Some Thrilling News To Residents Who Are Yachting Fanatics Like Myself :)

    I'll Try To Get Some Photos Later!!​

    Yea she is, I miss her from in Barbados already, her stay was so brief, I suppose she probably went to St. Barths for new years maybe?

    I said probably, I didn't say anything with certainty. Just that it is a tradition for hundreds of yachts to gather off St. Barths for Christmas and old/new year's.
