Thanks for the info.

I did wonder why it didn't have a name. Thought the 11.11 on the side was part of the design.

The Candy brothers. Can anyone explain the Candy brothers? Just how on Earth are these guys "worth" what it is claimed they are worth? Honestly I do not understand those two whatsoever.

Admittedly this isn't necessarily the best thread to be asking these questions.

My understanding is they inherited some money sub £100k from an Aunt in the early 90's together they purchased a property and flipped it before moving in. This type of scenario happened multiple times each time they accumulated more wealth and here they are today. Luck, ball's self confidence.

Not even you consider that you are looking at the premium super yacht building yard in the world. I spent 6 months there on a build. They built Savannah, Air, Lady Britt, Kahalani in recent years.

At a guess, it's nothing like a billion. Not paying tax helps. The yacht is no where near 60m and shouldn't be on the thread.

I read that Schipol is the worlds only airport located on the site on a naval battle. Damn those polder forming, land grabbing Dutchies!

I've met them both. Nope - I can't explain it. Distinctly average chaps. Perfectly nice though.

I was told that they became the sort of 'go to guys' if an oligarch wants to buy table cutlery set with diamonds. They'll source it super quick and charge top dollar. Multiply that by every other hideous thing that some super rich person might want - and there's the answer.
