MSNBC has a piece on the mysterious Laurel, a new megayacht being built by Delta Marine in Washington. The big blue Laurel is 240 feet making it the largest yacht built in the U.S. in a number of years. The article also mentions the 164-foot yacht recently launched by Westport Shipyard also in Washington and the Vancouver, Wash.-based Christensen Shipyards Inc. which has a 170-foot model. Western Washington could well be the U.S. hub for megayacht construction. Yachtspotter has more big pictures of the Laurel which is going to an American client and there is an active discussion of the boat going on at the Power Boat and Motoryacht Forum.

I have a photo of the Laurel taken this morning in Elliot Bay and Puget Sound during sea trials. Looks like they had it running full power and making tight turns amongst the ferries.

Hi I am doing a bit of research for my boss. He wants to by a super yacht and he has asked me to get together a few DVDs for him to look at to help him make his choice. The bigger the boat the better in this case. I would be much obliged if you could get a DVD of a selection of your boats to me ASAP as he is not a man who will wait very long. He has an idea and wants to make it real if you know what I mean. Please call me or email me if this is something you can help me with.
