Russian Yacht "A" - 04/16/2019 01:26 PM
This yacht has been in St. Maarten, was last month. Apparently she is now in the BVI. Someone over there posted this link to a story about her tenders. Those who have seen the boat might find it interesting, as I did.
LinkAnyone have any pictures of her in SXM that you'd care to post?

I guess I am just a traditionalist because those vessels are ugly. imo. They look like war boats rather than luxury yachts. But I suppose, much like art, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Other than the owner, I think most people think this thing is ugly..

We saw it several times in March while staying at Atrium. I might be in the minority but I was not bothered by the looks or design and I would imagine it is pretty sepctacular inside.

If the interior is even close to some of the other mega yachts it would probably leave me breathless.

It probably would look nicer if the sails were up. Have no doubt that it’s beautiful inside.

Well, at least her tenders are just as ugly - in my eyes, anyway - as the Mother Ship.
Everyone has different tastes and for what it’s worth, and from my personal perspective, a wealth of money is clearly not an indication of good taste in equal amounts. But as others have said, I’m sure it’s drop dead gorgeous inside with every luxury imaginable.

It doesn’t look anything close to a “traditional”look. But it is a beauty on its own. You don’t have to love it. This boat is a statement. A cool statement. Anybody can have a yacht like Limitless or any other, but it’s only ONE person who has A.
You have to give it to him, this is a one eye catching boat!
At first, I hated it. Well, kinda hated it, lol. But more you look at it more it grows up on you.
It is nothing like the Maltese Falcon, but it does have its own grace!

Totally agree, the Falcon is the thing of beauty and super sexy to boot!

Have to agree on that one.

It’s pretty amazing up close, not my cup of tea, but I can just imagine the inside. Would love to see a picture up close with the sails up.

Melnichenko owns it but I like Roman Abromavich 's Eclipse better.

Yes, Eclipse is much prettier.
