Trip to yacht in South France

Just back from the yacht in Antibes. Whistle







SWMBO posing for a photo after taking tea on the bridge:



Col de Turini the same afternoon:



Coming home via a slight detour in Germany:



1200km in one day from Holland to Nice and the FFRR was simply faultless. Could have turned round and gone back during the night without sleeping! Shocked

Nice!

Lovely colour combo by the way! Whistle

When we were in Monaco and Nice last summer we saw some awesome boats, one of them in Monaco did have a pair of matching silver Range Rovers for the owners/guests. Now that's living!

Can't say I'm afraid........ but he does have more than one of these 'toys'. Whistle

I deal with a number of International Mega Yacht customers and have enjoyed a cuppa on a few of these things. However, discretion is best when it comes to chatting publicly and he is simply referred to as 'the owner'........

One day I can be invited on an oil supply vessel in Aberdeen harbour and the next week it's a $100M toy in Monaco. It's a tough life you know!!! Laughing

To put things in perspective about these boats - if you look at the guys in the chairs of Dragons Den (Theo, Peter, Deborah, Duncan and James), I think they would need to 'club together' in order to buy the boat I was on and then they would be looking to sell it before the year was out!!!

Assuming it's the yacht I think it is, you're really not showing it from the best angle!

That boat is much larger than it looks from those photos

Yes, She is quite something with a very unusual bow. I was present at the launch in Holland a couple of years ago and it caused quite a stir.

Here is a good shot of the vessel and it gives a better idea of scale. From the bridge, it looks a lot shorter as the helideck is not seen at all.

Wow that really is something special. We did a couple of large AV installations on superyachts at my previous employers and I now I have gone it alone, I have a client who is looking to buy a 70m yacht which could be a fun project! None of them looked anything like Predator though!
