    Completion and delivery of T54 'Red Saphire' and T60 for UAE ruling family is now 6 months behind schedule. The word from inner circles (recent project managment meeting I attended) is late payments and cancellations by other clients and resulting late payments to contractors is having a serious knock on effect for Trinity's cash flow and ability to complete works.

    The announcement yesterday of Dubai Worlds financial difficulties will further impact on not only vulnerable Trinity Yachts but many other long term superyacht proposals.

    Well from what I see on the Trinity website, it seems that the "Red Sapphire" has been launched already.

    Fire Sale ?

    Any details on the fire? How bad/good is she? Is she an insurance boat now?

    Better question, is 12-million USD realistic?

    Her last Blog update was 30th September with no mention of a fire but did say she had a new Captain and was heading for Cape Town.

    When did the fire happen?

    Various reports:

    "USGC reported on the scene 18 March 2009."

    "According to one first responder, the fire started and was confined to the engine room. Witnesses at the scene say the smell was acrid and noxious even from a distance and that the interior would undoubtedly have suffered extensive smoke damage. There were no serious injuries reported."

    "Last reported that she was hauled at Derecktor"

    Actually, I learned today that she was declared a CTL and is now in possession of the insurance underwriters who are attempting to sell her through Merle Wood & Asso. Several interested parties have presented offers (no where near the 12mil asking) but none yet have stepped-up willing to take on the re-build.

    Rev,
    That last blog was from September, but of 2008.
    Her website URL (yachtladymichelle.com) expired Nov 25, 2009.
    I was fortunate to be visiting the Trinity yard during her build and get a few photos as I toured her. Will not post any though without permission of Trinity.

    So you are telling me that the brokerage news is lying?
