Anyone who lives on a boat seems to fight a losing battle with stuff.. It just grows... Even the most "If I don't use it in a year I'll throw it out" crowd still winds up with far too much stuff. From time to time I look at some stuff on So It Goes and think to myself, "Well I could always throw it in the dinghy and figure out what to do with it when we get someplace else"...
Well, someone actually took that approach for a solution (if on a somewhat grander scale)... Fifty million dollar yacht "Lady Lola" (205 feet) apparently just did not have enough room for "stuff" in its 924 tons of displacement and, as the helicopter was apparently a bit of an eyesore on the back deck and spoiled the view from the golfing green (GOLFING GREEN???), what better way to solve the problem than to get a bigger tender and throw all the extra stuff on it?!!
Well, it made sense to someone and Lady Lola now sports a nice little tender named Shadow with a helicopter hanger and more room than you can shake a stick at... but one does wonder just when Shadow, at 180 feet, will wind up needing someplace to store their "stuff"...
