If you've got it, show it off they say; we're talking about wealth, not leprosy, of course, and what better way than with a sod-off, luxury motor yacht.
Anyway, somebody with more accumulated wealth than a small, 3rd-World nation did a hand-brake turn and slid into La Herradura Bay to show mere mortals that moderation is for plebs.
Yes, this bathtube with the name Lady S., has a heliport and a mini golf course (golf-ball loss is shrugged off) and is valued at 100m USD and four Coca-Cola bottle tops.
The last known owner is Dan Snyder, who owns the Washington Redskins football team… and when we say football, we mean colonial rugby for body-armour junkies.
Whoever the owner is, he or she is keen on sports as the ‘Ritz in a Puddle’ also has areas for basketball, volleyball and football. Oh, and there is a cinema whose height occupies two decks for the less energetic on board.
Perhaps with less gelt but more taste was the three-masted schooner, built in 1918 and now under a Polish flag, that glided into the same bay in a stately manner a week or so ago.
