Non-boaty friend mentioned it today, £1m a week to charter (plus food, plus fuel, plus tips...), twice as many crew as guests.
Back of *** packet calculation suggests you could take 166 friends on a cruise on the Queen Mary for same money, or buy a 50ft+ flybridge outright, or maybe you have access to so much cash (even if not strictly speaking your own) it really doesn't matter how much it is so long as you enjoy it

€1.2m + expenses seems very reasonable. If I thought I could get a refund on next years famy holiday to Tenerife I'd consider it, of course I would.

From the website.....
Superyacht KISMET II was designed to be one of the most spectacular luxury yachts every launched.
Now I can forgive the odd typo on this forum but on the home page of a website in large font? Oi .... Kismet ..... No!
I was going to charter it but I am not now.

Perhaps we should club together and charter her for the Christmas and New Years eve period. to keep it exclusive, it would be just for forumites of course.
We could sit in comfort to see the fireworks on new years eve.
I will throw a tenner a day in the pot.
Any takers?

There is SWMBO and I, so with your contribution we're at £30 already. Only £999,970 to go.

I was meaning a tenner a couple, now you've gone and doubled the price!
Still, as I was already bringing my wife too, I will have to stump up the extra, so that's £40 in the kitty.
Already looking forward to it!

Ah, thank you for the interpretation.
Does it have sand on it, complete with buckets and spades etc?
Or is it just a glorified patio?
Sorry to bring these posh things down to earth...
