KISMET<br />
90<br />
An award-winning 95 metre Lürssen superyacht,<br />
Kismet is the ultimate entertainment vessel with a<br />
volume of 2,928 GT. Delivered in 2014, the aim was<br />
to construct a megayacht with engineering ahead of<br />
her time. Exceptional features include not one but<br />
two helicopter pads, a private observation platform<br />
with an outdoor bed created for stargazing, which<br />
can be locked off to other guests and crew.<br />
Cecil Wright is the global central agency for KISMET<br />
currently for sale for immediate use.<br />

THE PERCENTAGE OF<br />
MARINE ORGANISMS<br />
THAT SPEND AT LEAST<br />
PART OF THEIR LIFE<br />
IN THE MANGROVES.<br />
THEY ARE IN DANGER<br />
BUT ARE A CRITICAL<br />
HABITAT FOR SPECIES<br />
ABOVE AND BELOW THE<br />
SURFACE<br />
SHINE A LIGHT<br />
The Nitecore EDC27 is the<br />
perfect night-time companion.<br />
3,000 lumens and a maximum<br />
beam distance of 220 metres, a<br />
maximum run time of 37 hours in<br />
a handy 124g bundle.<br />

OUTRAGEOUS REQUESTS<br />
The owner’s granddaughter dropped her<br />
favourite crayon overboard, she throws<br />
a wild tantrum, but we were in the middle of the<br />
ocean. We did a U-turn so a diver could find the<br />
ostensibly precious crayon (he never did). Can<br />
you imagine the fuel wasted!<br />
SPOTTED IN THE MED<br />
FLYING FISH<br />
Perhaps the most fascinating<br />
Mediterranean species of all<br />
is the flying fish. It uses two<br />
pairs of elongated pectorals<br />
to catch updrafts, sailing out<br />
of the water for distances of<br />
655 feet at heights of over<br />
four feet. This bizarre ability is<br />
said to have evolved to escape<br />
predators, like mackerel, tuna,<br />
swordfish, and marlin.<br />

OPEN TO<br />
QUESTION<br />
WHAT’S THE MOST<br />
INTERESTING<br />
(OR RIDICULOUS)<br />
THING A GUEST’S<br />
EITHER SAID TO<br />
YOU, OR ASKED<br />
YOU THIS WINTER<br />
SEASON?<br />
ANDREA GARBULA<br />
CHEF<br />
A guest repeatedly<br />
asked for a 6 egg vegan<br />
omelette. They thought<br />
just the yolk was from<br />
an animal. With a side<br />
of turkey bacon. Guess<br />
turkeys aren’t animals<br />
either?<br />
FREDDIE VERE NICOLL<br />
MATE<br />
My favourite one was<br />
“Do you all arrange to<br />
be pointing in the same<br />
direction or are there<br />
rules for which direction<br />
you must anchor so all<br />
the boats point in the<br />
same direction?”<br />
MICHAEL DOYLE<br />
ENGINEER<br />
“How do the crew get<br />
home every night?<br />
Helicopter?” Why yes<br />
Madam. Next morning,<br />
Captain gets a complaint<br />
that a guest couldn’t<br />
sleep due to noise from<br />
the helicopters.<br />
SEAN BALLINGTON<br />
CHEF<br />
A guest wanted to take<br />
some Caribbean Sea<br />
home in a bottle, having<br />
gathered some it was<br />
deemed to be not blue<br />
enough … and could we<br />
move the boat to that<br />
bluer spot please.<br />
