"The underwater part of the stern of the Ozette is protruding, which makes it safer to launch the stern of the boat. At the same time, in the stern there were warehouses for storing motor skis. Look at this big groove in the middle. It leads to the interior of the ship. Enough to carry an auxiliary vessel no more than twenty meters in length and six meters in length. Of course, there are also height restrictions, the maximum cannot exceed six meters, and the draft cannot exceed two meters. ”

Link was worried that something would happen to Hannah if she ran around on the boat, and he held Hannah all the time after she got on the boat. At this time, he also saw the groove in the stern of the boat that was filled with water in the back. It was five meters long in the exposed part of the stern, but it was fifteen meters long inside the hull and more than seven meters wide. The rear end is open, and the motorboat can be driven out directly. If the back end is enclosed, this becomes a swimming pool.

"It looks like a swimming pool. "Link knows what it does. But the design looks a little different from the real thing. "Jet skis can be launched from here and driven out. So this should be a semi-open dock on a ship?"

Laurel Magee smiled and said, "Mr. Hans, you are right. If the rear end is enclosed, it's a swimming pool. In areas where the water is turbid, this groove needs to be closed. Of course, if you use filtered seawater, it can also be used as a swimming pool. ”

Perhaps to greet Link, the lights on this ship were all on. And at the top, there is a holographic projection of the sky. He was under the impression that there was another place inside the ship, which was also an indoor swimming pool.

He thought it was quite realistic. The height and size of this space, with such lights, is still very suitable for an indoor swimming pool on a rainy day.

He also had a separate trough at the very end of the pool-like dock with three motorboats.

Laurel Magee led them through the dock and then to an elevator that took them directly to the living quarters above the ship.

"The 1,900-square-foot space includes a living room, dining room and a small screening room that can seat 50 people. In front of it is a 1,500-square-foot ballroom that can host small dance parties. ”

Laurel Magee explains the layout of the yacht, while Link focuses on the interior finish.

Vintage-style leather sofas, lighting and upholstery in the living room. He looked very satisfied. He saw a 100-inch LCD TV on one wall in the living room and asked Laurel Magee, "Is there a TV here, can I get it at sea?"

"In fact, more than on land. It's just that we can only receive signals from satellite TV stations. In addition, we have installed anti-jamming mobile phone signal transceiver base stations on board, so that we can still communicate with the outside world unless it is interfered with by the military. ”

Laurel Magee then took them around the rest of the cabins on the first floor. After reading it, Link didn't have any opinions.

The second and third floors are residential areas.

In addition to the master suite, there are five luxury family suites, each about 700 square feet in size, and eight apartment-style suites, each about 230 square feet. All rooms are soundproofed with state-of-the-art soundproofing and are electrically powered on the Ozette, so there will be no noise in the suite. ”

Those are all by design, and Link certainly knows it.

I've seen the other suites just now, and now I'm in the master suite. This suite is also the largest in size, with more than 600 feet in the living room alone, a small bar, a concert hall, and so on, and it is the only one of all the suites with windows on both sides. The interior decoration is mainly made of logs, and the style has a European retro style. It can be seen that Link seems to like this style.

Claire knocked on the wooden board on the wall, and her voice was deep, as if the sound was absorbed.

Laurel Magee said with a smile: "For safety reasons, the decoration of the ship is fireproof, and it can be burned in an open flame of 1,500 degrees Celsius for 20 minutes without ignition. The outside of the board is coated with fireproof paint, and the inside is soundproofed, and the sound is muffled because the two are closely attached. ”

On the top floor, there is only the master suite. In addition, in front of the master suite, is a thirty-metre open-air deck with an open-air swimming pool above. And above the master room is the bridge. And at the rear of Cambridge there is an awning with an apron on top.

After Laurel Magee and the shipyard took Linkle inside and out, Link took the Ozette logbook from the shipbuilder's representative on the bridge and handed it to Laurel Magee.

The ship cost him $380 million, which was beyond his previous budget. But he was still very satisfied with the ship. He didn't know much about ships, so he didn't talk about the ships themselves. However, he was very satisfied with the shape, layout and interior decoration of the ship.

His main purpose in building this yacht is to go out to sea with his family and friends when he has free time. Rise, even a long voyage.

The shape of the ship is quite large. It is 109.5 meters long, with a maximum width of 18.4 meters on the side, and the widest part of the building is 19 meters, with a draft of 5.8 meters. That gave the yacht more space, but the standard displacement was more than 3,200 tons, far exceeding his previous plans.

Moreover, the aspect ratio of six also forced him to use a better power system to ensure that the yacht could reach a maximum speed of 30 knots.

The Ozette required a crew of eighteen to operate, as well as more than a dozen dedicated room service personnel and two paramedics. There is an ice storage room to store food and a desalination facility, which is enough to supply 130 people. And with a full tank of fuel, you can sail at a speed of eighteen knots for more than forty days, which is enough for the yacht to cross the Pacific Ocean directly.

In addition to the living quarters, there is also a special "children's playground" and a sports room. Below the center of gravity, there is a forty-metre long space with an indoor swimming pool, while there is also a smaller indoor pool on the upper floor, in addition to an open-air pool at the front, and another at the top of the deck. In other words, there are a total of five large and small pools on the yacht – one in the owner's suite.

The dock can carry auxiliary boats, which should be a yacht suitable for long-distance voyages and entertainment.

After seeing the yacht, Claire did not hide her envy and jealousy: "Maybe next year I should place an order to build my own yacht." ”

Neil hit him with a smile: "You're going to dock the yacht in Seattle and then drive it there when you want to play?"

Of course, Claire wants to buy a superyacht that is more than four hundred feet long, and maybe even longer in the end. Such a long yacht that an ordinary marina simply cannot accommodate it.

Claire reluctantly said, "When I have the money to buy a yacht, maybe I can buy a place with a river and dig a harbor pool in the river like Link." ”

If you can afford to buy such a large yacht, of course, you will not be unable to stand at the mooring. But that would certainly be a long way from the place of residence. And there is obviously no place near Fox that is properly distanced. Even Seattle is a long way away, and it takes more than an hour to get there by helicopter. Then the yacht needs to drive for an hour or two to reach the open sea. Since then, the yacht can only be used when he decides to go on vacation.

And he prefers to play when he wants to go on the weekends.

Neil smiled and said, "I think you could consider buying a yacht under two hundred feet." If you want to go to sea alone, I recommend buying one that is less than a hundred feet. ”

"Maybe I should start with a small one. Claire was starting to get hot when she saw Link's yacht. His heart wanted to sail a yacht on the sea, and his heart swelled like never before. "A 100-foot yacht does seem like a good thing. Link, I thought, if I could moor the yacht here. ”

"Of course you can!" The harbor is very large, and a hundred-foot yacht will not have much of a problem whether it is moored or docked.

"Then I'll think about it. If it's a yacht under 100 feet, I think you can find Trinity Yacht. ”

Sany Yachts is the largest manufacturer of private custom yachts in the United States and has a very good reputation. And when it comes to the construction of "giant" yachts under 180 feet, Sany yacht craftsmanship is also quite excellent.

"Also, you should go to sea in the near future, and you must remember to invite me. I've been showing off my fishing skills since I came west. ”

"Haha, I'm planning a voyage this week, maybe the weekend. Maybe it's time to invite you in advance. But I'm going to go to the sea zone between Oregon and Washington. I'm going to do a business trip by the way. He added. "You know, there's no way I'm going to sail now. ”

In the future, the most he can do is to be in a place where he can rush back immediately. Although he often travels all over the country, he does so by private jet.

Jessica is now more than seven months pregnant, and because she is a twin, she will give birth one to two weeks earlier, which means that after next month, she may give birth at any time. It's not yet due date. Not to mention whether there will be any accidents, but he heard from the doctor that after a woman is pregnant, the more she reaches the labor period, the more likely her mood is to change and prenatal depression appears. He didn't dare to go to places where he couldn't get to her right away.

Moreover, he knew that Jessica would have liked him to spend more time with her. He stayed with her as much as he could. And she, of course, is not fit to go to sea now. So it was impossible for Link to sail too far to the sea. At most, it will not exceed the sea area that cannot be reached by helicopter range.

Claire was not disgusted at all, saying, "The weekend is just right. Maybe I'll be able to play at sea for a while while you're on the spot. ”

It's summer, and it's a good time to sail. But he's very busy at the moment, so it's good to be able to steal some time on the weekend.

"I'll call you on Friday to set a specific time for your departure. Link said and then to Neil. "Neil, what about you. Interested in coming together?"

"Well, I want to go to New York. I need to talk to a client. Neil said right away. "As you know, our financial investment company has now officially started to provide customers with wealth management investment business. ”

Neither Link nor Claire debunked his excuses. They were all sure that the sullen man was thinking about women.

Link said to Laurel Magee, "Laurel, it's going to sail on Saturday morning, right?"

"Absolutely. It will welcome you in the best possible condition. ”
