This truly is a beatiful vessel, i had the pleasure of viewing her in port at St Tropez this week. Lovely work from the Dutch builders as said before. The owner is indeed a businessman from Yorkshire England, im led to believe he made his money in black puddings, starting out selling from a small shop front in Bingley to become the second largest black pudding magnate in West Yorkshire by the age of 32 years of age. Humble beginnings !
I stood a while portside to view the vessel when i saw t'boat and heard the cries of "Eye 'up" from the deck, it brought a tear to my eye I can tell you. I saw the deck-hands walking the owners whippets around the harbour too, which made my day !
