Purely out of interest, what type of boat is Sir Allan Sugar seen on during this prog. I assume it is his if so were is it berthed.

Didn't see the prog. so I don't know what he was on. He doesn't have his own boat, according to the Torygraph:

[ QUOTE ]
Planes have replaced boats in his affections: Sugar used to own a 160ft superyacht, the Louisiana, but decided it was not cost-effective. "I got rid of the boat," he huffs. "I've got four aeroplanes and I don't mind about them. But the boat got on my bloody nerves. So now I just go out and charter the best boat in the water, when I want it. Then I just walk off of it and say, Goodbye."

Name of the yacht is....

KATHARINE. Built by Trinity Yachts in New Orleans, launched in 2001 as SEAHAWK. 177' LOA. Owner is American businessman Lee Anderson, Chairman of API Group. He is a past Chairman of the International Seakeepers Society, a laudable organization which puts monitoring equipment onto large yachts (and commercial vessels) to gather info on the ecological conditions of the oceans as a yacht travels in remote areas. KATHARINE is available for charter, so I'm sure the show's producers or Sugar chartered her for the show.

Link to info on her:

Trinity are regarded as among the best U.S. builders of large yachts, but not in the same league as Feadship, Royal Huisman, Lurssen and such which are regarded as the world's best.
