	Power & Motoryacht Forums: Is Octopus beautiful?
		Seems the pedigree and romance in yacht building is dead and that 2 rival (American) billionaires are the reason for this due to a race to build the biggest yacht but i do think that Larry Ellison's yacht will be alot easier on the eyes.
		An octopus is not a beautiful creature anyway, perhaps octopus refers to the data connections the yacht has, connecting to global networks.
		Octopus could have been something truly magnificent but sadly she will always be a pink cadillac....

		Seeing the Feadship yacht, Virginian, set against the quaint buildings of Portofino gives you a clue to how massive this yacht really is. At 203 feet, she can carry around 12 guests in six cabins.
