TRAVEL CHANNEL: MILLION DOLLAR YACHTS PART 1 OF 3

-Program Highlights-

--192 Ft. Islander jet-drive/motor yacht in the Caribbean available for charter for $200/wk. Nice interior and impressive art collection.

--168 Ft. Dionea motor yacht, in the Italian Riviera, a classic-looking yacht with great up-to-date amenities. Charter for $120/Wk.

--246 Leander. Can I say WOW!!! 7 staterooms, 24 crew, this is a beautiful yacht, the interior is amazing. If I had a $1Mill I would for sure charter her for 2weeks. It took 4 gas tankers 4 hours to fill up the 70,000 gallons of fuel tank, yet this mammoth moves through the water graciously.

--246 Ft. Phocea in Cannes France four-masted biggie, she looks awesome sailing away, and the interior is to die for. It's huge!

--196 Ft. Senses in Monaco, 4 jetskies, a sailing catamaran, a wooden sailing boat, a huge RIB and a 42Ft. tender that deploys in the most spectacular way, not to mention they show the helicopter landing and deploying while Senses it's on it's way, the interior is minimalist yet very chic, it's awesome,

I'm running out of superlatives to describe this yacht, the owner is a lucky man, a truly amazing expedition yacht.

It is one thing to see them in the magazines and read about them, but it's truly a great experience to see them in action. It makes you wonder how amazing the REAL big megayachts really are when you go aboard them and really see them doing what they were designed to do. Octopus? Pelorus? Lady Moura? Rising Sun??? No wonder they are kept so secret, they are truly works of art that should be admired.
