Luxurious Rebecca Sailing Yacht Visits Marblehead, MA
Rebecca Sailing Yacht by German Frers
Yesterday afternoon after finding our way out of Marblehead Harbor, we could not help but notice an amazing sailboat sitting out at the mouth of the harbor. It simply towered over any boat that came by. It is extremely rare to see a boat of this size that is either power or sail in or around Marblehead Harbor. Couple of good reasons for that is they simply do not fit, there is no marina that can handle this size boat with a dock or services. When we looked at the transom, we were not surprised to see it was registered in Newport, Rhode Island.
We could not help ourselves but to visit www.superyachtfan.com to researched some information about this beautiful yacht. Below is some of the information the website provided:
