RUSSIA

Red Square The heart of Moscow and the first destination for most visitors to the city. Surrounded by St. Basil's Cathedral, the State History Museum, Lenin's Mausoleum and one of the Kremlin's long

brick walls. The cobbles that make up the square are black and not red; the name comes from another gloss of the Russian word "krasniy", meaning "beautiful". Metro: Ohotnii Ryad, Teatralnaya

or Ploshad Revolutsii.

Lenin Mausoleum - in the centre of the Red Square. Walk past the embalmed body of Vladimir

Lenin (who actually did not want any monuments to be built for him) and join the debate if it is still him. You must leave all cameras, phones and bags in the luggage office. Free admission.

Open 10AM-1PM closed Mondays and Fridays.

St Basil Cathedral - in the south part of Red Square. Built in 1555-61. Inside is a museum, although it

looks best from the outside, but if you have the time, take a peek inside.

The Kremlin – This gigantic site cannot be missed. The Diamond collection in the Armoury is worth a

visit on its own. There are several stunning churches that warrant a visit. Choose one or two to go inside, then enjoy the rest from the gardens. If you get a chance, the ballet in the Conference Centre has some very cheap matinee performances (and you can change seats in the interval). Tickets are

700 rubles to visit the armory and 350 rubles to visit everything else. Arrive early as tickets go on sale 30 minutes (10AM tour) or 1 hour (12, 14:30, and 16:30 tours) before scheduled tours. There are also rotating exhibitions which cost 200 rubles entry. The ticket office is closed Thursdays. Large bags must be left at a luggage office (60 rubles). Amateur photography and videotaping is prohibited.

Metro: for tourist entrances - Biblioteka im. V.I.Lenina, Alexandrovskii Sad, Arbatskaya (Dark Blue line, east exit) or a short walk from Borovitskaya. For rest of the walls additional stations: Ohotnii Ryad,

Teatralnaya and Ploschad Revolutsii near norther tip of the Kremlin, following walk through Alexandrovskii Garden or through Red Square.

Old Arbat Street

–Walk down this kitschy street and don't forget to look at the small by-streets around the Arbat. They allow you to feel the "old Moscow spirit". Arbat is full of souvenir vendors,

tourist cafes, lousy restaurants, artists, etc. The prices of the souvenirs vary from reasonable to rip-off.

Bolshoi Theatre Sit in front of the famed theater near the fountain, or catch a show inside if you can.

Tickets start at around 1000 rubles. Metro: Ohotnii Ryad, Teatralnaya or Ploshad Revolutsii.

Tretyakov Gallery

–One of the world's greatest museums, this is probably the one to choose if you only want to visit one museum in Moscow. In contrast to the worldwide collection of the Pushkin Museum, the Tretyakov is mostly a collection of Russian art. It has the best collection of Russian

icons and many of the most famous pieces of modern Russian artists like Ilya Repin. Metro: Tretyakovskaya or Novokuznetskaya.

(NB: There are actually two Tretyakov museums now, the classic one and the 20th Century one. The classic one is where it has always been, the 20th Century one is in the Artist's House Cultural

Center across from Gorky Park. They charge separate entry fees.)

Pushkin Museum Is dedicated to Western art and has one of the world's most significant Impressionist and Post- Impressionist collections, along with some Old Masters. The Impressionists and Post-Impressionists were rather unfortunately relocated to an annex in 2007 across the street from the main building.

Novodevichy Convent

Both a convent and a fortress, Novodevichy was built in the early 1500s and has remained nearly Intact since the 17th century, making it one of the best preserved historical complexes in Moscow. The adjacent Novodevichy Cemetery is one of Russia's most famous cemeteries. Famous people Buried there include Anton Chekhov, Nickolai Gogol, Konstantine Stanislavski, Nikita Khrushchev, Raisa Gorbachev (the former President's wife), and Boris Yeltsin. Metro: Sportivnaya.

Church of the Ascension Built to commemorate the birth of Ivan the Terrible, Kolomenskoye's Church of the Ascension

upended the Byzantine style with its wooden conical tower, and proved to be a milestone in the history of Russian ecclesiastical architecture.

The Institute of Russian Realist Art (IRRA)

The heart of the collection is presented by paintings of Soviet and Russian masters of ХХ-XXI centuries Sergey Gerasimov, Arkady Plastov, Alexander Deineka, Yuri Pimenov, Gely Korzhev, Victor Popkov, Nikolay Andronov, brothers Alexey and Sergey Tkachev, Victor Ivanov. The paintings exposed at IRRA offer a unique opportunity to get acquainted with important stages of the history of Soviet society. Now IRRA’s collection is considered to be one of the best in the world.

IRRA is located in one of ancient buildings of Moscow cotton print factory in Zamoskvorechye opposite to the Moscow New-Spassky monastery. After re-planning and restoration of outer

walls of the factory building constructed at the end of the XIX century, museum premises have been equipped with the most up-to-date engineering and professional museum storage equipment.

Now the equipment of the building meets the advanced standards specified for the largest museums of the world. Since December, 2011 the exposition of IRRA is available for the visitors from Russia and

abroad, who are interested in cultural tradition of national Realist school. Address: Derbenevskaya street 7, building. 31 (metro stations Paveletskaya, Proletarskaya).

New Arbat Street

Located near Old Arbat Street, this street offers a contrast from the touristy pedestrian-only Thoroughfare. New Arbat is perhaps where Moscow's rich are the most visible, as some of Moscow's most expensive restaurants and nightclubs are located here. There are some reasonably priced cafes,

however. The street is lavishly lit up at night and is always very lively. Also, check out Dom Knigi (House of Books) on New Arbat. It's not as impressive as the St. Petersburg store, but probably the best bet for books in Moscow. Metro: Arbatskaya (both blue lines, take west exit for Dark Blue line).

Tverskaya Street

This street starts from the Kremlin itself and is now Moscow's most fashionable street, with several

prestigious boutiques. It is also lined with cafes, restaurants, coffeehouses, a couple of theaters, and several hotels, including two locations of the Marriott though along the way you will find Russia's first,

and the world's busiest, McDonalds.

Gorky Park The most well known of Moscow's many parks, Gorky Park used to be packed with theme park rides,

but after undergoing major changes in 2011, it became one of the trendiest places in the city. New cafes, places to stroll, a pétanque cafe, an open-air cinema theatre, free Wi-Fi, contemporary

public art projects, design fairs and a new cafe policy make Gorky Park one of the most popular places in Moscow. In winter it's a popular place to ice skate and it hosts an ice sculpture competition.

Victory Park

This massive memorial to WWII was built for the 50-year anniversary of V-E day in 1995. On weekends, it is very popular with newlyweds. The park now has its own metro station of the same name (Park Pobedy, on the Dark Blue line). There is also a museum to WWII worth visiting if you like

military history.

Vorobyovy Gory

The best place for a view of Moscow from the ground. Near the main Moscow State University building, there is a popular lookout point where one can see much of the city on clear days.

VDNKh, aka VVTs.

The Russian acronym "VDNKh" stood for "Exhibit of the People's Economic Achievements". It has

been since renamed "All-Russian Exhibition Center" ("Vserossiyskiy Vystavochniy Tsentr"). However, it is popularly known by the Soviet abbreviations. Previously this was a massive exhibit

of the advances and progress of the USSR. Now it is largely a marketplace for everything from computers to bicycles. However, many of the monuments and fountains here make the area a nice place to stroll. Bicycles and roller-skates rent is available. The main gates are a short work down the

alley from VDNKh Metro station or even close from Vystavochnii Centr monorail station. Various other gates are accessible from Ulitsa Eizenshteina or Ulitsa Akademika Koroleva monorail stations. VVTs is part of large green recreational zone in the Moscow's North-East, including also

Ostankino park with historical Ostankino Palace and Botanical Gardens.

YACHT FASHION

There are many clothes manufactures that touch on the yachting theme but you must remember the Amount of storage space you have or do not have. Shoes are always a big issue especially were you

Women are concerned. The question of no shoes on board comes from a couple of reason. The main Reason is that the decks are teak which is a soft wood and high heels will dig into the wood leaving Horrible pot holes. Other shoes have black soles and these will leave rubber makes or scratches on

All other surfaces hence deck shoes have white soles and very little tread pattern not to hold the dirt. These are a few examples of different yachting looks starting with the ladies.

Remember storage light materials which do not crease are much better to use

Shoes Light soles little tread no sharp heels

Blue and white strips are a must for any yachting outfit but now with companies as Ralph Lauren, Gucci And many more other colours are encouraged with the introduction of pink yachting shoes.

Investment

St Kitts

The marina will be located in what is presently the Great Salt Pond, a 300-acre parcel that serves as the centerpiece of the 2,500-acre Christophe Harbor resort. Whitehouse Bay, located just outside the Great Salt Pond, is already known to be one of the best anchorages in the Caribbean. "When other anchorages and harbors are made virtually unusable by winter swells (as recently happened in St Barths), the protected waters of Christophe Harbor remain calm and comfortable. The resort's master developer, Christophe Harbor Development Company, Limited (CHDC), is managing the marina's development as well as the overall development of Christophe Harbor. CHDC is a venture led by Kiawah Development Partners (KDP). KDP is well known for its demonstrable development commitment to protecting and preserving natural habitats throughout its 20-year history. The marina excavation project will be managed by St. Kitts Marine Works, which is owned

and operated by Kittitian Regiwell Francis. Upon its completion, the Christophe Harbor marina and yacht harbor will provide protected entrance and a safe inner harbor; 300 slips with 50 to 60 slips accommodating vessels 85 feet to 300 feet in length; Designated port-of-entry featuring streamlined Customs and Immigration Services. The marina will also offer spacious berthing capacity and commercial and technical advantages that are unique to the region's boating community. The resort will offer a mega yacht harbor and marina; a championship, 18-hole golf course; luxury residential real estate; two branded five-star hotels; a private yacht club, beach clubs, restaurants and shopping. The marina will spawn a vibrant marina village bustling with commercial activity. This will not only offer mega yacht owners, guests and crews an exciting destination, but will also provide numerous local jobs and opportunities for local entrepreneurs and service providers." In addition to the resort's luxury, five-star hotel amenities, boat owners and guests also will have access to facilities including an elegant yacht club, with a captain's lounge and guest quarters, dockside provisioning, freshwater hookups, reservations at the island's best restaurants and concierge services including transportation, laundry service and security. The marina also will provide in-slip services, such as repair and maintenance, as well as fueling hook-up for boats longer than 60 feet and waste-water and factory services for yachts greater than 100 feet in length."At full build out, the mega yacht marina project will cost over $100 million USD. Mega yacht slips are being offered at the introductory rate of $10,000 per linear foot. The first phase will take 14-16 months so we aim to be completed by spring 2011. The first 15 of the new harbor front property lots will be ready for sale in April 2010." He adds, "Designs for the first mega yacht docks are also in progress. Work will commence when the excavation is complete in spring 2011.

PORTOFINO 40

Marking the return to this entry level length, the new Portofino 40 is the result of a long hard study of a highly competitive market sector, and the end product is an absolute class leading all-rounder. In plan she's a two cabin, four+one berth, family or friends

boat with central saloon, galley and twin access head and shower room. Beyond the exquisite owner stateroom forward, the real surprise is the headroom and huge hullside windows in the amidships cabin with its twin beds and third, child's berth. But at heart,

like every Sunseeker, the Portofino 40 is a true sports cruiser, with a top speed of up to 34 knots.

POROTOFINO 48

Combining space with pace, the Portofino 48 achieves a remarkable interior plan, with a full-beam owner's aft suite with huge windows to either side. Forward, there's a clever VIP suite in which the double bed cunningly swings apart to create twin single

berths. The central saloon sits at the heart of the accommodation and enjoys a mix of grain, bold lacquers and deep glass options. The boat's profile is sleek with a long expanse of foredeck topped by cantilevering sun pads. The cockpit screen rises fairly well aft in a smooth and neatly engineered radius, behind which is a helm station with pilot seating, wet bar and full dining arrangement.

There's also a choice of open or hard top versions.

wherever you want to go fast. While the ride thrills, the Sunseeker design hull and deck provide an impressive soft ride sensation, ensuring guests enjoy sun pad relaxation under way as well as at rest.

MANHATTON 73 The Manhattan 73 is defined by its ingenious use of space. The vessel enjoys increased volume not just by length but also by courtesy of the broad beam that's carried lower in the hull. This enables a third full-size double stateroom on the lower deck, plus plenty more headroom throughout. The main saloon is now also on one single, sweep-through level, providing a vast entertainment space. Finally,

for ultimate manoeuvrability, there's the option of joystick control, dramatically simplifying docking.

PREDATOR 74 The Predator 74 provides total flexibility to meet the requirements of either owner-driver or crewed

operation. With a choice of either standard hardtop or optional sports flybridge, and of layout configurations, this versatile model is a further evolution of the Predator range. The latest design

The stylised arrow-head foredeck arrangement with its table seating, sunpad and optional parasols offer an alternative, more private space. Cruising range is up to 350 nautical miles at around 23 knots or, with the largest capacity engine option, up to 30 knots. With the proven hull form, the

ride will be utterly comfortable, even in bigger seas. There is a remarkable choice of different combinations of guest cabins on the lower deck, from three full-beam double suites to one double suite forward and four half-beam twin cabins running aft.

THE STORY OF SUNSEEKER

FROM MODEST BEGINNINGS IN A SHED, A SHOWROOM AND A SLIPWAY

TO A WORK FORCE OF 2,500 MODERN SHIPYARDS AND A WORLD BEATING TECHNOLOGY CENTRE.

Originally importers and distributors of boats from Scandinavia and the USA, Poole Power Boats (as Sunseeker was then

known) started moulding and fitting out their own boats in the early 1970s. One day, when exhibiting their first 17 and 23 footers at a Boat Show, a man who was a boat dealer in the south of France commented, “if you can make them all in white,

and put a full width sunbed across the stern, I’ll buy them”. The fact that they did so, and that the boats sold well exemplified a set of attitudes that has characterised Sunseeker to this day: listen to what customers want and give it to them;

don’t be afraid to try something totally new; always explore new markets.

This dictum lead to some notable events and milestones, not only for the company but also for the boat building industry as a whole. Firstly, the collaboration with Don Shead to develop the race-derived deep-V hulls that have become a Sunseeker trademark,

Allowing owners to enjoy sporting performance as well as comfort and freedom.

Bold and luxurious interior designs set Sunseeker apart as style innovators, assisted by the appointment of naval architect and stylist Ken Freivokh, renowned for his imaginative use of space on megayachts. The modern curvaceous styling since emulated by so many

other yacht builders was first developed by Sunseeker in the nineteen eighties, in parallel with styling changes in the motor industry.

Few manufacturers have pioneered as many drive and propulsion systems in leisure craft. The early Offshore 28 It was a revolutionary

craft, the first in Europe with a lightweight hull specifically designed to carry stern-drive diesel engines powering twin outdrives.

Duoprops, where two propellers rotate in opposing directions for improved efficiency, were first seen on the subsequent Offshore 31.

A few years later the Superhawk 50 became the first production boat to have stern-driven race-bred Arneson surface drives, with five-bladed surface-piercing propellers carried on extended shafts. Twin 680hp V8 MAN units, half the weight of the conventional

equivalents, gave speeds of up to 50 knots with surprising acceleration for a craft of 14 tons, with noise levels kept low by venting the engine exhaust behind the propeller, which also created slip - so usefully reducing drag.

Two years later, the Comanche 40 was the first family-size cruiser to offer an integral garage for the tenders and toys that are today

expected as standard in the modern motoryacht.

In the early nineties Renegade 60 pushed new frontiers; it was the first production boat to be powered by water jets – expelling 32,000 gallons every minute at full throttle.

But above all, over the years the Sunseeker range has epitomised the ability to surprise the public and boat owners, and perhaps demoralise the competition. Just when you might have thought that no Sunseeker could ever match or exceed the latest model for

speed, grace, style, space, flexibility or luxury - the next one did! That “wow!” factor, and the magician-like ability to provoke it, matched with a reputation for build quality is what has turned the brand into the icon it is today.

Nowhere has this been evidenced more strongly than in boat size. To evolve from the first 17 foot dayboat to the imminent 46 Metre Yacht (a near 10-fold increase in length, but over 300 times greater in displacement) in only 4 decades just could not have happened without constant change, evolution and up-scaling in every single part of the organisation, from technology to shipyards, from delivery vehicles to a world-wide network of distributors – many in countries that had far from “emerged” as

markets 40 years ago.

The challenges and milestones of scale have been at times momentous. We have talked of evolution and change over time, but some of the developments have been giant leaps. In the late nineties the show-stopping jaw-dropper came in the

form of the Predator 80 whose previous largest predecessor was the Predator 63. To break the 80 foot barrier was a bold move indeed, and no small challenge.

In the mid-nineties the perception of large boats was generally one of reduced performance, offering vast accommodation,

but requiring a permanent crew. Sunseeker set out to change that attitude with the design of the Predator 80 - an open-deck performance motoryacht that was also available as a hard-top option. She benefited from a full programme of stress analysis,

resulting in a soft-riding hull that was a fine example of modern materials technology, with super-efficient hydrodynamics allowing her 50 tons to reach speeds in excess of 46 knots. The Predator 80 set a new benchmark for luxury boating, with a perfect

combination of accommodation,performance, range and handling. Not only could the Predator 80 be effectively handled by two people, she was also an extremely comfortable boat, with

an ingenious and flexiblestandard interior layout. Particular attention was paid to suppressing noise and vibration, with the whole interior located on resilient mounts. And she featured the most sumptuous interior design yet seen on a Sunseeker,

creating a feeling of opulence that once again set new standards in production boats. As a semi-custom yacht, customers were also encouraged tochoose from numerous different layout options to design an interior that suited their needs and tastes.

Sunseeker’s decision in 2001 to centralise its technical operations under one roof represented a major investment for the

company – and one made at a very uncertain time in terms of global events. The opening of the Technology Centre provided a co-ordinated platform for new investment, as well as developing world-beating

design and production processes. It meant a new approach to design co-ordination, as with the dedicated interior design department. More than ever before, interior designers now work alongside sales, engineering design, yacht styling and production teams to plan

and shape interiors on a computer screen, and later mocked up in full scale on the new hull jigs. New design systems like Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) provide software that helps the naval architect confirm and predict how different hull shapes

and configurations will behave in specific sea conditions. Perhaps most importantly of all, the new Technology Centre has paved the way for new manufacturing capabilities, thereby

increasing the build quality of Sunseekers yet further and simultaneously reducing waste and unit costs. These include systems like the new lacquering facility, which uses state-of-the-art equipment to achieve truly wonderful quality on interior woodwork.

Furthermore, the new 3-axis CNC machinery provides the ability to shape and cut the components needed to fit out a particular interior plan at extremely high speed, whilst minimising waste and improving the quality of the fitting.

Computer Aided Design working in tandem with Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAD/CAM) produces exact correlation at every stage, from what the designer shapes on his screen, to what the machine cuts on the table; from what the fitter has in his hands,

to what the customer appreciates in the finished yacht.

The technology afforded by the new centre has vaulted Sunseeker to the rare position of JIT (Just in Time) manufacturing, in which components are made at the precise time they’re needed for build, thereby minimising storage, spoilage and excess stock. The way in which these components are supplied to the production line is also radically different from boat building of the past. Complete helm

control consoles can be assembled and tested at the Technology Centre, as can wiring looms and ship monitoring systems. The interior furniture and furnishings can be machined, upholstered, assembled, checked and dismantled for despatch to the boatyard,

each element bearing the unique reference number of the hull to which it is to be fitted.

The next challenge in the progress of Sunseeker in terms of boat size was its greatest to date in terms of manufacturing – the 100 foot mark. Now Sunseeker was to become a shipbuilder as well as a boat builder.

The Year 2001 saw the launch of the 105 Yacht, a 105 foot (32m) motor yacht, with a predicted top speed of 32 knots. Her outstanding were in large part due to the extensive support systems she carried - and the reliability that is assured by using proven technology in a

production yacht. These systems include the advanced use of hydraulics, stabilisers computer-controlled generators and electrical systems, innovations that meant the 105 Yacht was safe and reliable. The 105 Yacht also became the first British-built production boat to

win two of the world’s most prestigious International Superyacht Design awards. The years since the introduction of the 105 Yacht have seen Sunseeker develop into an accepted world-class luxury yacht builder.

To succeed in doing so has required more than just an up-scaling of previous boat building skills and procedures. The new craft are classed as commercial vessels, and subject to strict regulations as to passenger and crew safety and well-being, ocean-going equipment

specifications, including the qualifications of those in charge of their operation. The way in which they are used is also different from that of smaller craft, which might spend extended periods of time in a marina between excursions. It is quite feasible that, between maintenance and any refit lay-ups, the new yachts will be in

constant operation at some level 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Even without owners and guests on board, the resident crew need power to conduct the extensive monitoring and maintenance that a ship’s system requires, as well as for their personal needs.

The demands made by such usage on engines, generators, pumps, electrical circuits and fluid systems, and the need for failsafe

back-up at all times, particularly in open sea conditions, means that every single component (and the 37M Yacht has 108,000 of them) must be of the highest possible standard. Many of these standards are prescribed by the UK’s Maritime and Coastguard Agency,

whose assessors inspect every stage of a ship’s construction, from initial hull to final hand-over of the vessel to a suitably qualified Master.

To embrace and comply with the requirements of modern shipbuilding Sunseeker have designed and created new shipyards,

where even the movement of the huge hulls from shed to shed and shed to hard standing to slipway need to be computer controlled. A completely new approach to production line infrastructure was also needed, in almost every department. New materials handling

equipment and procedures are an obvious essential where the maximum permitted safe weight to be lifted manually is 25kg and the end product weighs nearly 200 tonnes. Waste must be kept to a minimum, aided by on-site recycling facilities.

Innovations on the personnel side have needed to be made as well. Senior shipyard staff are now drawn from ship operation as well as traditional boat construction. Experienced mariners and engineers from the merchant marine, the Royal Navy and the private yacht

community now form part of the complement, among them the very few individuals actually qualified and authorised to be in charge of a commercial vessel on the water. A new on-site Compliance Department has been created to ensure that certification

standards are fully met. The current top range Sunseeker Yachts can be built to full MCA and RINA specification, positioning Sunseeker fairly and squarely

in the superyacht world.

Throughout the story of Sunseeker there runs one dominant thread: constant innovation, be it in design, performance, technology

or luxury. And the pursuit of excellence, which is the stuff of iconic status, exemplified by the fact that Sunseeker craft have featured in the last four James Bond films.

It’s a phenomenon we believe will sustain our exceptional success – for years to come.
