Looking for Chelsea boss Abramovich’s new super-yacht?

A couple of weeks ago, new Chelsea owner (£150M) Roman Abramovich (£3.5B?) bought himself his third yacht, the 115m Pelorus (£72M; photos 1/2/3). Previously owned by Saudi billionaire Al Sheik Modhassan and with a crew of 40 and an onboard submarine (which the security guards didn’t want photographed), it is now undergoing a comprehensive refit in Barcelona harbour by a multinational team including engineers from the Dutch firm, Heinen & Hopman. Not to be outdone, new Barcelona FC president Joan Laporta is having his own mega-vessel worked on nearby.

Facts & figures: This Is London, The Moscow Times and old men along the quay.

   Does anybody have details about the Pelorus. What it is like inside? Does anybody know anybody who works on it? I am writing a book about Roman Abramovich.

   Greetings,
   I too would appreciate viewing the Pelorus via more photos. Would somebody give me a shout if some PHOTOS become available.
