Another Mega Yacht Anchored Off Rye

We have a serious city budget gap this year and should be charging for parking. Not car parking. That’s chump change. Yacht parking.

Not as big as the mega yacht Utopia IV that was parked off Rye earlier in August, but not still too shabby. Seen Friday through Sunday, the mega yacht So Nice was parked off North Manursing Island near the Bluefish Shoal and Buoy 36.

The owner of the Cayman Island flagged 130 foot yacht is not immediately apparent, and the yacht does not appear available for charter (sorry to disappoint folks). The boat was built in 2009 and originally named Allogante, then Loretta Anne IV, then Tat’s before being re-named So Nice.

From the yacht builder Alloy, in New Zeland:
