Superyacht on the Thames

[MoodySabre]

There was a huge boat anchored off Leigh-on-Sea a couple of days ago. Today I went to London and there it was - rafted up against HMS Belfast complete with chopper on board.

its not just the colour but it does look more like a warship than a sunlounging plaything strewn with toys

it proabably has got toys but they are of the more
take a small country out variety than go play in the sea.

Pelorus (377 feet / 115 meter long) -

Le Grand Bleu (370 feet / 112 meter long) – commissioned by a Saudi businessman, Abramovich bought her in 2002 and had her completely refitted including a 16ft swim platform and sports dock. He gave her to friend Eugene Shvidler in June 2006.

I was working in London this week and at 7.00 this morning the little ferry from the Hilton to Isle of Dogs had to slow to a standstill to let it past. It had a defaced red ensign and I couldn't work it out - painted gunship grey, I thought it might be a top-notch naval officer's plaything! Not pretty, though...
