Yacht Spotting: Helios

Well, we’re back to hanging with the big boys and girls. There are several mega-yachts here in St. Thomas, and I’m sure more will be arriving as the season progresses. You could probably fit half a dozen Mr Macs into the slips designed for these guys. Here’s a couple of pictures of Helios, a 148' yacht (with five spreaders on that 171' mast!), which briefly anchored near us before heading into the marina. You can’t tell from the picture, but the hull is a beautiful maroon color. Pretty boat. You can see more details about her here.
