Colombier • St Barths

St Barths is clearly the place the megayachts like to spend New Year's! This great shot was taken off Colombier just before Christmas by Bob Paylor. No prizes for spotting Rising Sun on the right. In the middle I can see Aviva II, Islander (two masts) and Renalo. But what about the others?

Update: Bob's sent in the quiz answers on the top photo. Just one or two two still missing… Meanwhile there is another one bugging him, below in front of Oasis.



Gustavia was heaving with megayachts on New Year's Eve. The season peaks on this night, which is the one night of the year the port authorities allow larger yachts to enter. The next day most will leave. Simply too many photos to post but here's a quick list for the record of those in and around the port for New Year's and the days preceding it. Many shots will appear in the comments section of the relevant photo page.
