    Umm could you tell me why "Fortunato" is listing like that?

    It seems your photos are from 2 weeks ago because you have "Steel" photographed. Steel is currently here in Barbados and was here for about the last 7 days.

    Fortunato was taking on oil at the time, and these photos were taken Jan 12th, 2010.

    So, Wadadli, how is it that.......

    you manage to gain access to so many huge mega-yachts? I've always assumed that security would be very tight on such vessels; indeed, I've always suspected that if I tried to gain access, I would be thrown bodily off the pier, before actually getting anywhere near the ship itself! So what's your secret?

    In Antigua you just walk around the docks and chat to crews and skippers, its not hard. High security involves locking the aftdeck bar.

    Inquiry

    I am looking to purchase a top of the line super yacht or mega yacht within the next year and I was inquiring if anyone has heard of any fantastic boat shows that will be coming to the US. I am willing to travel anywhere in the US, but if it is a must I will travel international.

    Thank you in advance
