That looks like a cross between a deep sea trawler and a salvage tug ! Also how shall we say this politely, she is a little small and light for Tubs and the role he envisages. Try looking at the aforementioned Dutch and German yards to see what real size luxury yachts look like, and indeed their costs. On the plus side crew accommodation is generally better on yachts than that given to those operating for the “Grey funnel line”. However I still do not believe it will be built and the crewing and cost issues are yet another issue for the Navy .
