Larry Ellison's 452.5 ft "Rising Sun"

Larry Ellison's latest yacht is the 138 meter or 452.5 ft Lurssen "Rising Sun." We've seen her a couple of times in the BVI's; once anchored off of The Bitter End Yacht Club in Virgin Gorda and another time cruising by us near Roadtown, Tortola.

Was just wandering around the net and found this page about Rising Sun, shocked to read the part about "the crew was very nasty, throwing water balloons at passing little boats just having a look."
I don't believe it for a second! I've worked on Rising Sun for almost 2 years and our crew have never done anything of the sort, in fact we wouldn't even have the time to do it.
The crew can be a bit blunt with some boats that come close and ask all sorts of questions they know they are not going to get an answer to, but that is the nature of the business when the owners request that details are kept private.

We were in the BVIs at the Bitter End yacht club and Rising Sun was in for several days, aside from the fact she is so big she had to stay further out than the Yachts of Sea Dream and the Seabourn legend, but the crew was very nasty, throwing water balloons at passing little boats just having a look. My husband and I thought it resembled a changed over military ship. Sorry!

@08-April: my thoughts exactly. I hadn't seen an image of his latest billionaire toy. I am stunned that someone with such awesome taste in attire, in his Japanese traditional woodworking home, in his beautiful vessel Sayonara, would spend so much money to build the largest private yacht in the world and have it turn out so completely ugly, devoid of character, style, personality, ...

What a butt-ass ugly yacht.
