All above me here is bollocks. If you want to really get away with another fawning gin palace with a flag for the exclusive partying of a a tiny few do the following;
1. Build it in Britain and use British owned/based companies to do that, preferably for political reasons in England (very difficult now, that post Thatcher but not impossible (Birkenhead or Barrow maybe...long shot south coast).
2. Populate it with a smattering of fawning volunteer RN as SME but use local young civvy kids as cleaning up fodder crew, pretend they're onside and pay them nowt as a privilege.
3. **** it off round the world as an gawp fest oddity ASAP to gain intrest.
4. Tie in sponsorship from the usual suspects (BAE, BA, Virgin, BT) and other gong issue demanding Sirs.

The British way.
