    There is scaffolding and platforms all over the yacht not just the stern platform...some minor work probably being done.

    Maybe he wants to have her in impeccable shape to show her off during the Monaco Grandprix (Formula 1) that is coming up in a few weeks. Wouldn't be too surprised. Took the sailboat down today, right next to Eclipse. Crazy, crazy big boat, but really beautiful to look at (to my eye at least).

    Cheers,
    Olli

    Yes Eclipse is very elegant for her lenght when you
    compare her with fo example Al Said,
    my opinion.

    Well..."Al Said" isn't all that bad...although I much prefer her 'sister' "Katara"..but I think I am biased.

    Which support is that? "Oberon"? There are a few of those now, and not easy to tell which is which. I think Oberon is support to "Titan".

    I really don't know which one it is, but "Eclipse" tender is behind her.

    In the docks there are some other yachts, for example "Amadeus" and "Asteria"

    Great Pics Josaver ,well done!

    It seems that the owner has many many tender/toys ,
    'cause he has tender garages in three giant yachts but
    it seems thats's not enough space for him ,
    so he needs a support vessel ,too :eek:
    Problems of billionairs :D , I hope you understood what I meant.

    @ josaver again .
    I saw in one pic Kismet ,maybe it's possible that you can take some shots of her ,But ONLY when you have time for that,thanks.

    Are you talking about 4th photo in post #331?

    She is "hidden" in the refit docks and is the only angle to see her in this position.

    You can see some shots on "Kismet" in posts #101, #106 and #107
