I Dynasty

I Dynasty, Benetti, LivornoThe 59-meter (194 feet) “I Dynasty” entering the port after some trials at sea. It was built in the Benetti shipyard of Livorno with an aluminium superstructure on a steel hull.I Dynasty, Benetti, Livorno The yacht was launched in May 2008, carries the Cayman Islands flag and has as port of registry George Town.I Dynasty, Benetti, LivornoI am not so fond of these yachts as toys for billionaires, but because they are the last boats built in our historical shipyards: beautiful and technologically advanced, these are our Ferraris.

    I agree with Joo, that middle shot is a beauty. The yacht has attitude from that angle. I also love the last shot where you make her look as sleek and fast as a ferrari.

    I'm not much of a modern boat fan either but I suppose that as things go, this is a beauty of a ship! And we need our shipyards to survive!

    I believe I've seen her put into port here. She is beautiful. Tremendous fuel consumption for all boats in this class. Hope to show you an alternative in the next few day.

    I prefer tall ships too, but this one has beautiful lines nonetheless. A Ferrari of the seas indeed:-)

    I would guess it costs $80,000 USD just to fill the gas tanks!

    Lots of these in Ft. Lauderdale...hard to imagine people with that much money!

    Beautiful shots, Vogon Poet!

    May the moon be with you!
