Finally the ole girl is in the yard for a much needed refit. She is reported to be in the beginning stages of a six month refit in Saint-Nazaire, France. Can’t wait to she her with a fresh new coat of paint… If this is the case, then this debunks the Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie wedding onboard. I bet the crew are relieved!

I was on a yacht that had a 5 month refit in Spain and they offered us half-time pay and we all took vacation. Pretty good deal! However, some of my friends are on a refit right now and they have to stay and work while the ship is in the yard. Depends on the vessel and its management.
I wonder if the declining market is putting some pressure on Paul Allen’s yachts? Having three yachts has to be a huge monthly expense. Maybe at his level of wealth, it does not matter if the market is up or down – usually the mega wealthy make just as much money either way.
Hey, looking for crew work and just wondering if anyone has the details on the yacht management company that manages Mr. Allen’s yachts?
