How the top 1/100th of 1 percent lives.......

The owners of these vessels really work at concealing their identities.

Very true but there are sometimes surprising lapses. We did some
research last summer into the ownership of a nicely restored old boat
and found all the information buried about 3 deep in obscure Delaware
corporate entities. A straight Google search on the boat name however
popped up a reference by the "real owners" yacht club. Turned out to
be someone that I've met a few times and had no idea that it was his.

Another one, a magnificent 120 ft sailing yacht, was so well obscured
that I actually discovered a few web sites devoted to ferreting out
who the actual owner was, along with some well researched analysis.
Their best guess was the owner of a German software company based on a
number of relevant factors.
