No doubt it will be purchased by some Lib billionaire who espouses environmentalism

This is great. Think of all the jobs this purchase created and will create.

Just maintaining the crew and resupplying it would be a major expense.
Are there many ports in the world with slots large enough that are not cargo oriented?

It looks like a long haul to bring your fish from the water up to the deck.

A few thoughts: 1.) How can your troll with a boat this size? 2.) If you did catch a fish, how do you get it on board? 3.) Where in there world is there a nice marina that would handle a ship this size? I would think it would have to dock near cruise ships or container ships. That doesn’t make for a pleasant view.
To: C19fan
What purpose does it serve, at some point doesn’t it pretty much cease to be a boating experience for an owner?
