Dolphins in Poole Bay
A great day out on the water. A blast from Poole to IOW this morning shook the cobwebs off the boat. A quick eye ball with the Super Yacht "Le Grande Bleu" near Yarmouth and back to Poole. On the way back I met up with a group of dolphins just off Sandbanks. I took some impromtu video, it is not great as it was with an iphone.



It was great to see the dolphins close up, Le Grande Bleu is very impressive with the big Sunseeker and Yacht on the deck. A few ribs onboard as well

OMG theres a yacht on the deck!! Not seen that before!

In ST Tropez on honeymoon i saw a big boats aft section raise up and a rib/tender came out from inside to travel the 25m to the shore bars in pampellone beach/club 55.

But a full on yacht!

On the opposite side alongside the yacht is a 40-50foot motor cruiser also, and that does not include the ribs

According to Wikipedia, Mr Abromavich gave away le Grand Bleu to his mate Eugene Shvidler. Probably took pity on him for only being a lowly multi-millionaire!

Le Grand Blue is grand indeed, setting out with a pair of 3,600-horsepower Wärtsilä engines, a crew of 50 and an onboard 74-foot sailboat and 67-foot Motorboat
Nice if you can get it....

Out of fuel? Anchor stuck? Batteries flat? Skipper quit? Lost the keys?

Very impressive mind...
