If my eyes don't deceive me, the Maltese Falcon just entered Marigot Harbor. That is one big sailboat. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Groovin.gif" alt="" />

It's a beauty! Was hanging around St. Barth's and SXM over the holidays. I read where it is a rental now. Couldn't rent 1/2 hour price on that ship. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Yikes.gif" alt="" />

I understand you can rent it for about 400,000 Euros a week (plus expenses).
About 1,200 Euro per half-hour <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

Plus expenses and gratuity.....all, food, drink, docking, fuel, etc for you, guests and crew. Gets pricey. Good news is, the charter rate was a whole lot more just five years ago

Any idea on where is it "parked"?... I really wanna come and take a close look at this beauty! I did have a chance to see it close about 8-9 years ago here on SXM...

I saw it leave Marigot Harbor today, was heading east up the Anguilla Channel, my guess is it was heading to St. Barth's. If I see it again, I'll post it here.
I don't think it stays in one place very long.

It sailed past Orient Beach last night towards St. Barth. For the crossinq, all sails were up. Interesting ship.

The yacht is really a beautiful sight when you see it with all sails up and sailing. Still dreaming.

I think it is in Simpson Bay right now. If I tell them I know you can I get on?

I wondered about it as well, as I arrived earlier this week it motored from Anguilla into Marigot and that was odd, considering it's usual place is at Simpson Bay. Maltese at Blowing Rock / Maltese at Falmouth
