Chapter 192: The Palace on the Sea
Early the next morning, five large SUVs set off for Ancona, a small coastal town 300 kilometers away. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The road conditions are good, and if it is smooth, it will take less than 3 hours to get there. But this time, except for the driver and Jackson, Zhang Nan left a Nicole in the car - the distance is long, and no one wants to sit upside down, which is uncomfortable.
"Boss, it would have been much more comfortable to arrange a helicopter if needed when you came back. ”
Jackson kindly reminded him as he approached Ancona.
"No, I don't like helicopters. ”
Yes, Zhang Nan hates helicopters, he sat in them once before he was reborn: they are noisy, and they don't have a sense of security.
In fact, he doesn't like to fly - he can't help himself when he is three feet above the ground, let alone 30,000 feet above the ground!
To put it bluntly, he is a little afraid of heights, and he actually feels a little uncomfortable when he goes to the Empire State Building observation deck, but it is not very serious.
More than 3 hours after departing from Rome, Zhang Nan saw the superyacht of his own - "Sunshine Star". It is moored right on the dock of the shipyard and is now in the broadboard loading stage.
The hull is made of steel, and the superstructure is mainly made of high-strength aluminum alloy, which reminds Zhang Nan of the unreliable British Type 42 destroyers and Type 21 frigates in the Falklands War - it is because the superstructure uses aluminum alloy on a large scale, and as a result, it can't withstand the high temperature after being hit by missiles and bombs.
But I bought a yacht, not a destroyer, I don't have to go to war, and it doesn't matter if it's aluminum.
Although it was not finished yet, the two women immediately fell in love with the superyacht, which is 65.5 meters long and 10.20 meters wide.
It's really beautiful!
The ship has 5 VIP cabins and 1 master suite, which can comfortably accommodate 12 guests, 14 crew members and 8 service staff.
Accompanied by the person in charge of the shipyard, Zhang Nan visited the superyacht, which has reached about 85% of the construction progress.
Boarding from the stern is also the standard way of boarding: the design here is characteristic, and when the aft hatch is opened to the sea, it becomes an oversized swimming platform.
As a superyacht, it has all the top equipment, although it has not yet started the interior decoration stage, but from the rendering design drawings provided by the shipyard, you can still see the luxury of this ship - it is completely a milky white small palace on the sea.
The huge yacht also has a garage with electro-hydraulic side doors that can accommodate a 7.5-metre tender and of course the owner can drive it for fishing.
On the interior side of the garage, you can also store a rubber boat with a fast inflation and a high-speed motor.
As for the navigation, communication and other facilities on the ship, it is also the most advanced at present, not to mention the necessary life-saving facilities.
But even so, Zhang Nan made some changes to the interior cabin layout of the yacht because it was too luxurious: one of the huge VIP cabins was lowered to a space that could accommodate six bodyguards. There is also an extra bed that can accommodate up to 10 people.
He also canceled a few arrangements that were a bit flashy for him, a Chinese: for example, there was a cabin with a 180-degree view at the bow of the ship, which was originally the owner's sunny study.
There is also a small study on the side of the master bedroom so that the owner can take care of some of the work that needs to be done.
"Nicole, did you think we'd be reading here?"
Nicole shook her head directly: When you go to the sea to play, how many guys will be patient to read?
I also deliberately made such a sunny study out, which is a pure waste!
Anyway, this part has not been decorated, and it has been directly changed into a double VIP room, and there are two folding extra beds on the back panel that can be used as sofas - the sunshine study originally had a small bathroom, and the pipeline did not need to be moved.
There's also the en-suite bathroom in the master bedroom, which was originally designed with an oversized bathtub – and a small pocket-sized pool on the sun deck, which is also heated with massage.
Isn't that a waste!
Zhang Nan was a childish person, and directly changed the bathroom by more than half, and the extra space became a storage room.
As for what to hide, then we will talk about it then.
All the bathtubs in the VIP rooms have been eliminated and replaced with shower rooms - this significantly saves the use of fresh water, and the whole ship can provide life security for more passengers.
The original owner didn't think about bringing bodyguards at all, but Zhang Nan needed it, and he needed to save space.
These requirements do not require a traumatic transformation, which is a superficial effort for the whole ship, and the shipyard said that there is no problem.
Moreover, some of the original owner's customization requirements that did not meet Zhang Nan's aesthetics have also been changed: the extra-large wide long dining table that was originally used in the main dining room has also been replaced with a common width, which reduces the waste of space.
In addition, the large sofas in the two wings of the dining room have been reduced to one row, and the large main dining room can comfortably accommodate two rows of tables.
It's a bit of a nondescript change, but Nicole and Jenny don't have a word, and the others don't say a word.
The head of the shipyard reminded that the number of seats in the restaurant has exceeded the number of guests.
"I've always dined with my bodyguards, and my guests will get used to it. ”
The head of the shipyard was speechless.
Zhang Nan felt that he was right: Does anyone mind?
Brother is not uncommon to play with you!
Because it is an ultra-luxury superyacht, even the cabins of 14 crew members and 8 service personnel are in very good condition, and there should be two crew members in each small cabin - at least to the level of a European first-class train suite.
There's even a separate crew dining room and lounge area, just below deck, and the blueprints aren't shabby at all.
Looking at several decks, such a superyacht is definitely the top, and even after twenty years, it will not be left behind as long as the electronic facilities are updated and the configuration will develop rapidly.
The removal of the flashy marble trim from the original bathrooms also reduced the weight of the superstructure and stabilized the center of gravity of the ship.
The big guy with a full load displacement of nearly 1,200 tons is stuffed with just such a few people, luxurious enough.
Stripped of the extravagant, and drained of the water in the small pool on the top sun deck, this ship should be fine for transporting one or two hundred tons of stuff if it were to be used as a transport ship.
The Aria Sea is a beautiful place, with huge cruise terminals on the north side of the shipyard and marinas full of yachts on the right. However, because they had to hurry back to the United States, the group only stayed in Ancona, which is full of Italian classical style, for a day, and did not have much to play, and returned to Rome early the next morning.
On the same day, we visited the Colosseum in ancient Rome and went to the Vatican for a walk.
Early in the morning of the third day, Zhang Nan took advantage of the time and took a few people to the Porte de Porte open-air market, the largest in Rome. (To be continued.) )
