As we leave the pier and proceed down the river, this floating dock with a strange looking ship comes into view. I found out that this all covered up ship is the yacht "Octopus" which belonged to the billionaire Mr. Allen Paul who was the co-founder of Microsoft. It cost him 250 million dollars. Allen Paul died in October 2018 at the age of 65.
Apparently the new owner/s want some renovations done and want it all kept hidden from the public eye.

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
Raj, I see this to a certain extent with the yacht shipyard in my area as well. The luxury yachts are build in a hall and are brought outside only when they are ready for the sea trials. The knife cuts apparently on two sides: the building/renovations are hidden from the public and one can do the renovation independent from the weather conditions. A pity for photographers and old salts like us, 😄 !

Maybe Marry Poppins will get a sneak peak of the yacht Raj.
This would be perfect for the "Photojournalism" category, if we had one.
Great photo with ample information.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.
Amazing amount of cranes in this shot Raj - very colorful as well.

I agree with Tick, 'This would be perfect for the "Photojournalism" category'...a cool sneak peek at a yacht of the wealthy and cute to also see one called Mary Poppins...our tour is already very interesting and a great shot along the way.

I know that it is not my boat (so big it should be called a ship?) - my house could fit in Allen's yacht several times over.

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine The Earth without art is just 'eh'.
Wow, that is one very expensive ship, really very informative information. Fantastic capture and you sure got there at the right time and place to get this one, way to go my friend
