The superyacht 'Vava II' at a shipyard in Flushing, Zeeland, The Netherlands, probably for a refit.

Probably because of privacy reasons, I couldn't get any further information, but checking out this link and this one will make clear why I've chosen for this title.

Edit:

After some 'research', I still got this information:

"The Amels-shipyard in Flushing took care of the 96-metre Vava II's extensive refit, including full paintwork and mechanical servicing. Vava II's refit was brought forward at short notice, but despite a busy schedule Amels were able to accommodate the yacht.The refit was done in the recently commissioned 200-metre, fully climate-controlled covered drydock with deepwater direct access to the North Sea."

The above quoted drydock can be seen at the background of this image.

Gee, I would love to get a three man canoe. But, okay, why not spring for a super yacht? Doubt if it would maneuver very well on the rivers around here so I may have to move to where I could actually use this floating hotel.

That is some impressive water float! Way beyond my means. I bet it offers a good ride on the open water. tigs=^..^=

This was quite a find and I'm sure quite enjoyable for a Sea Dog like yourself. I can picture you behind the helm heading out to sea. Beautiful capture SEA.

Spotless paintwork on the hull - so I can only imagine how the interior looks. 4 satellite domes! we used to have only 1 :) Nice capture of this beauty Cornelius.

That translates to 315 feet in length, one heckuva boat, Mr. C.! The Fletcher Class of destroyers in the WWII U.S. Navy were around 380 feet in length. At 83 percent the size of a destroyer, the only elements missing are a range of anti-aircraft guns and torpedo tubes. There are several people on the stern deck that give scale to the craft, so I'm guessing the jacuzzi is somewhere back there? Then again, the North Sea is usually chilly so the jacuzzi is likely inside somewhere, below decks.

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
