After final checks in Southampton Docks she headed across the channel to Blohm and Voss’ facility in Bremen, where these photos were taken, for some finishing touches.
She will attend the 2010 Monaco Yacht Show. Read More...

Finally a shot of the Saudi royal gigayacht Al Salamah - thanks to Thilo !
These photos were taken on a visit to the Lürssen Werft yard in Bremen Vegesack, back in 2001, in the pioneering days of digital cameras - I had a bit of fun with a Hockney style composite with the low res originals.
Al Salamah was back at MWB Bremen, in Bremerhaven, in 2007 - did anyone happen to record the visit ?
Thilo also has a question which had me stumped - I'll post it in the comments.
