Force Blue (yacht) visited Sosua Bay twice this past week. Pleasure or business?

Hmmm.. It's not very old. Built 2002.
Originally named the Big Roi, it's owned by Flavio Briatore of Renault Formula One fame.
The previous owner was Roy Speer, the Home Shopping Network guy..
Sister ships are the Turmoil and the Big Aron.
Flavio has been known to romp onboard with supermodel Naomi Campbell, who was last seen throwing things at the crew. LOL

Just out of curiousity, where could I go to lookup the history of Force Blue?
It obviously didn't start life as a mega yacht.
Anyone know it's history?
Let me google that puppy..

It was originally built as a research vessel. I took a tour of the yacht when it was at Ocean World Marina, its just amazing inside. It looks a little weird on the outside but its built for cross-Atlantic trips and of course has the research vessel hull.

I also got to take a close look at the yacht when it was 'tied up' at Ocean World Marina... lots of crew and a beautiful vessel all in all. :bunny:

Kudos to the Captain and crew!

Stay well,
Amy

DR News "the worlds largest yacht"

Wikipedia puts it at the 8th largest yacht.

Either way, if they are hiring - I'm on board!

I'd clean that helipad with my tongue if Billion Bill asked me to.
