Jolie, Pitt buy Italian luxury yacht

The Associated Press

ROME, Italy: Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are treating themselves to an
Italian luxury yacht fitted with a swimming pool, a heliport and a
submarine.

The yacht will be built in the shipyard of Civitavecchia, a port town
north of Rome, by luxury shipbuilder Privilege Yard SpA, which said
Wednesday that the couple has commissioned an 85-meter-long
(280-foot-long) yacht for €200 million (US$268 million). Delivery is set
for July 2009.

The passenger cabin will include two 300-square-meter (3,200-square-foot)
apartments, plus two guest suites of 150 square meters (1,600 square feet)
each.

Other features include a swimming pool, a heliport, speedboats and a small
submarine that will allow guests to explore the sea up to a depth of 300
meters (980 feet).



I wonder why they went for the compact model.

It's more fuel efficient.
