Superyacht Mogambo

In the absence of liners visiting Guernsey,( although the Fram is due Good Friday,) another Superyacht visited today topping up her fuel tanks before heading for Gibraltar. She arrived late afternoon after the fast ferry had departed for Jersey.  In the background,is one of the two tankers owned by the Island of Guernsey, the Sarnia Cherie.

The 74m Mogambo, built by a German yard, was launched in the summer of 2012 and is available for charter for up to 12 guests. She is named after a 1953 film starring Clark Gable and Grace Kelly. With a current charter cost, according to Yacht Charter Fleet, of $762,000 per week, perhaps you will have to be in the film star earning bracket to enjoy this yacht! Sitting alongside No 1 berth in St Peter Port her size is shown compared to the St Peter Port Lifeboat

Having completed her top up Mogambo dominates the RORO ramp whilst she waits for the pilot to see her safely on her way to Gibraltar.
