Hello St Thomas!

Another quick trip over the pond, this time to the beautiful island of St Thomas, part of the rather lovely group of US Virgin Islands. No sign of any virgins, but we did manage to shoot a fab superyacht, MY Katrion.

sKATRION 2638

This 48m luxury yacht was developed by The Feadship De Vries Shipyard in 1997. She’s a great looking yacht created by naval architects De Voogt Naval Architects and Guido De Groot. John Munford was involved in the designing of the interior which is seriously cool, with TV screens appearing from nowhere in almost every room!

Great shoot as always, massive thanks to Captain Ben & the crew – have a great trip to Florida guys, and hope to catch up with you all again soon. Great birthday breakfast for Bex the stewardess while we were there too –  Simon those pancakes were fantastic!

As a side note, if you’re travelling long haul via BA, note that there’s now a 32kg baggage limit per item, and don’t worry about putting padlocks on your cases if going through Miami, because those nice Customs Officers (the ones with the guns) will just cut them off and leave a little note inside your case to tell you they’ve had a look through your gear in case you’re smuggling small animals or herbal cigarettes, etc.
