Hopefully we will get the chance to make it over to the U.S. to get some shots of her.

If anyone has any new shots and would like to post them here – simply post them on www.yachttrails.com.  We have a partnership with that site and are allowed to use any Octopus shots on there for this blog.

Here is one of the Octopus in Ushuaia, Argentina.

The last one is of her in St-Nazaire, France (where she is currently under major 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!
