Classic superyacht

You can keep you modern superyachts - this would be the one for me.

To give you an idea of it's size the Turkish bath alone is 260 tons of marble - yes tons - that's heavier than the biggest Sunseeker ever built the 37m trideck - and that's just the bath!!!

A bargain to charter - only £300,000 a week.......

Yep! I could live on that. Pretty exclusive though, I can't even access the web site - it refuses to let my Int. Ex. look at it. Perhaps they know my cheque might bounce.

Surely you know a mate who could get you a discount for cash codders ?

that must be one big bath...............i think you need to read the first page again ..........slowly

I took the bath info from the official site - not that one.

"A large swimming pool, two Jacuzzis, two seperate saunas and steam rooms, a fitness center and a floor heated turkish bath built from 260 tons of carved marble are available for your pleasure."

Considering the size, 650lt/hr @15knts seems quite frugal

Displacement hulls use far less power than planing ones. A Sunseeker 120' yacht has about the same hp as the 500' Savarona - so they use about the same amount of fuel.

comparing the Savarona to a 37m trideck is a bit like comparing the Queen with Victoria Beckham...?!

Funnily enough I said exactly the same to my brother - you could easily imagine inviting the Queen aboard the Savarona but Sunseekers are definitely more footballers wives!!!

I love Sunseekers and I am very proud of them being British but they aren't exactly elegant - neither are most of the other modern super yachts.

Ok not elegent in the normal sense but Nordhavn (www.nordhavn.com) they are very very smart and hardly the sort of thing the WAG's would be attracted to... but very much modern.

I love the Nordhavns as I have mentioned a few times before. They may only do 10kts but they have a range of over 4,000 miles - a lot more on the bigger ones.
