Who owns "Jamaica Bay"?
I went past it on my way down the Potomac a couple of days ago. Just curious. It's big. |

It's a foreign registry, probably to a corporate entity. Typically the builders, brokers and crew of a boat like that will be sworn to secrecy with non-disclosure agreements regarding the true identity of the owner. Sometimes if you google around you can pick up snippets of gossip. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=yacht+jamaica+bay+owner |

Usually the crew doesn't know who actually owns the boat, just that it is a XYZ registration. The Captain will know that he takes orders from Mr./Madam ABC but that is all. In fact the captain is quite happy with the situation as he is left to be the boss. -- Cheers, Bruce |

Looks like anyone who's had anything to do with it is sworn to secrecy. I had my interest piqued because I was wandering around Old Alexandria Sunday a week back and this thing was at the pier there. Bit hard to miss being that big. The I saw it again when I was heading back down river. I wondered who'd bothered to take it all the way to Washington (not an easy drive) and thought it just might have been the guy who owns the Redskins. Apparently these things are the latest must have for the owners - the Ravens' owners' boat, "Final Drive" from memory, sits alongside Ego Alley in Annapolis. Not in it, but next slip other side sort of. But then I figured if they are "must haves" they have to tell everyone, right? I abhor a vacuum so I want to know. Hoges in the Piankatank |

Hoges in the Piankatank The ones we get over here are almost always on charter or going to be chartered, or fixing it up to go on charter, or, or, or. The actual owners might come out for a couple of weeks a year but the majority of the "passengers" have chartered it. We had one come in twice with a helicopter on the roof:-) That one I did ask about as the helicopter had some strange licence number. Nobody knew where the helicopter was registered but I was told that it couldn't fly in the country without a lot of paper work to get permissions, etc. -- Cheers, Bruce |
