Al Mirqab

Here is a nice pic of the oceAnco build Al Mirqab arriving in Cartagena. Very big phenomenal yacht and the big projecting fins make her a very distinct oceAnco build. http://www.shipspotting.com/modules/...php?lid=325946

Very fine foto..I must find the ones I have pre lauch. I remember a lot of them I took before the upper wings were installed. She looked so funny. Still think shes one of the most elaegant yachts afloat today. Any idea if its still the original owner and captain? I look out the fotos

As promised,,the launch

Hi.. I sed I had sme photos of the launch well here they are. All taken by me , You can clearly see the immence size of the remote controlled tractors rolling under the hull.. Not e the 3 props like I said previously..You can see on the first foto the maindeck lift installed for the Mercedes's to drive off the back end while in portThis whole process took 4-5 hours from shed to barge which was then floated to deper waters in Rotterdam..Hope you like them. I dont travel the world as much as I used to so I never get the chance to see them in port somewhere..

Is that you

Hi M. If you mean the one with the propeller, yes but thats all you will see of me on these forums. Curious!!! You been a member since 2005 and your first post (2 years later) is to ask that one question? Is there a reason for that??? Did you like the Pics? It was a cold morning when I took the photos. There's so few pre-launch photos of her I felt it right to show them.

Thanks for your prompt and straight answer. In fact, I am more watching and reading the comments and the pictures than posting messages. As I am the sales and marketing manager for Oceanco, I am sure that you will understand that I like to keep an eye on all the published Oceanco yacht pictures, in order not to upset our yacht owners by publishing to much details ... and by the way, yes indeed, very nice images!
