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).

It's more fuel efficient.

I wonder where these lovebirds stand on global warming, air pollution, and
fuel prices, etc.

Any bets on whether or not they will still be together when the thing is
finished?

$268mm? That should amortize out to about $5mm per night that they
will actually spend aboard this thing, disregarding the additional few
million bucks a year it will cost to staff, maintain, and fuel it.

Waht's the old boaters joke?
