when is a ship a yacht? when it is more marketable as a pleasure craft?
yacht: Any of various relatively small sailing or motor-driven vessels,
generally with smart graceful lines, used for pleasure cruises or racing.
ship: A vessel of considerable size for deep-water navigation
i guess the octopus qualifies.

a Ship is a vessel of over 100 tons propelled by its own power
A ship is a sailing vessel that has square rigging on at least one mast
Now this thing has plenty of room to carry some FWD's just sail it up to
cape york and ferry the FWD ashore and you have the ideal base for a little exploring...
Hmm you might be interested to know that this "yacht" is now one of the smaller private yachts , some middle eastern "oil" people have much larger and more flash yachts than this one, a few keep the yachts in special enclosed and air-con docks that they have built to protect the yachts from the harsh climate.
If anyone has a spare $150 million I can point them to a nice bargain ... Grin
Its does turn things on it head, why carry a boat when the boat will carry the FWD.....
