I went past it on my way down the Potomac a couple of days ago. Just curious. It's big. ==== This one? http://www.charterworld.com/news/nobiskrug-deliver-motor-yacht-jamaica-bay http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPuQ7BOyQIk Yes, that one. 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 I googled around extensively but couldn't turn up anything concrete. 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 |
