Default fastest megayacht

I thought some of you might find this interesting...

it looks like that chick who brought the champagne bottles on the go-fast in another thread expecting champagne glasses to be onboard would find them on this boat and actually be able to use them at speed!

Here is a better video (more yacht, less talking)
http://www.superyachts.com/motor-yac...ough-video.htm

This is his new boat:
Diamonds are Forever- http://diamondsyacht.com/

Charter it for 400K a week or buy it for 59mm.

He lives in the next town over from me and is a local celebrity. From his car collection/museum to his month long Christmas light display (he pays to light every house on his street, beautiful lights/music/theme and then hires off duty cops to direct traffic.

Car Collection: http://www.carsofdreams.com/

Millennium was a one off for sure. He is part owner of Benetti now.

He has been building these boats (James Bond theme/names) for 30+ years. Casino Royale, Octo*****, Moon Raker were all his boats.

He usually had a Viking sportfish also. Rumor was when Viking premiered their new 82 that hull number 007 was reserved for him. His last 74 was called Casino Royale II and was sold to the founders of Five Guy's burgers.

He sunk a ton of money into The World Is Not Enough, and it ended up being a POS. I had a friend who worked on it briefly, cracks everywhere, was unstable, and it spun out on a test run. Was just a bad idea from the start. I will give him credit for putting his money where his mouth is, and going big and trying. Unfortunately, it will probably be in a scrap yard sooner rather than later, because from what I heard it gave up a lot of it's normal yacht cruise speed ride to bad hull design and trying to push the limits.
