Spotted a couple of boats in Barcelona port today, not sure on value but pretty certain they fit in here!
Indian Empress...
Be surprised if it's owner Vijay Mallya was there too, he's still hiding out in the UK unable to travel after the Indian Government revoked his passport.

Or is he? Smuggled out in a barrel of Kingfisher Beer maybe.

I told them I didn't want the red line at waterline, it should be blue. Don't want the thing any more, better order another

Your top 3 are my top 3 biggrin. The Falcon is just stunning. I saw it off the coast of Nice a few years back and couldnt stop staring.
I don't spent that much time on boats, too depressing as it really makes me want one, but your top 3 is pretty much there.

The Falcon is stunning but think I'd swap it for the Grand Bleu.

Octopus is simply the best. Stunning.

A few shots of Kismet moored on The Thames at the weekend probably as the owner was watching his NFL team at Wembley (and when I say 'his' team, he owns the Jacksonville Jaguars and Fulham FC)







Kismet is back in town, as I've just discovered, and with a new coat of paint. It's now mostly a high-gloss dark grey. Very imposing with moored in South Dock. Frank "Westfield" Lowy's Ilona is also here again, and has been for a while. Impressive as Ilona is, Mr L must be feeling slightly belittled by his berthing neighbour!

That looks sensational - just a pity they are going to put masts on it. I'd leave it as it is!

Octopus was in Malaga harbour last week, looked absolutely stunning, I haven't seen many super Yachts in my life, just those in Barcelona last year and Octopus in Malaga.

Had the helicopter on the back which was the first thing that caught my eye.

Alfa Nero remains THE super yacht for me.

Closely followed by Octopus and The Maltese Falcon.
Just curious... Why Alfa Nero over any of the other oceAnco 7-series, or Alberto Pinto designs? I frequently hear (on PH mainly) that she is something special, but not much about her sister ships, Nirvana, Seven Seas, etc.

To be fair, I have seen Alfa multiple times across multiple years down in the South of France so thats why its in the front of my mind I suppose. Perhaps the others are not seen too often?

Seven seas looks equally nice having just googled it!

Nirvana is a great looking boat. I was up for a job on there earlier this year but dates didn't work out for us and I went for something else. Always like that boat though.

Since we're talking about top 3's, if I had to narrow it down i'd go for;

Savannah
A
Skat


Honourable Mentions; (Could list another 30!laugh)
Okto
Predator
Rising Sun
Atlante
Sherakhan

I love how extravagantly long the thing is, for how 'little' living space it delivers. So decadent.

I hate square rigged yachts. But I guess rigged as a Bermudan it would have a simply huge mast!

Ulysses. Already featured a few pages back is one of my favourites.
All the boat I would ever need to get as far away from the Med as possible!
