Tiger's selling his yacht

Tiger Woods' yacht 'Privacy'

In the market for a new boat? Tiger Woods is selling the yacht he bought his wife Elin for a wedding present back in 2004. And yes, the semen stains are included for no additional charge. From the Palm Beach Post:

“[Elin] didn’t want it because the upkeep is incredibly expensive,” the source said.

With a permanent crew of 13, Privacy costs more than $2 million a year to maintain.

Privacy is now back at its home-port in North Palm Beach’s Old Port Cove, and Woods is shopping for a broker to list it for $25 million. While Woods bought the ship for $20 million, he believes it appreciated in value because it’s been well taken care of.

I can totally relate to Elin when it comes to turning down something worth millions of dollars. As it turns out, just last week I refused a once in a lifetime offer of $15 million that was emailed to me from a high powered barrister in Nigeria. Why? Because I ~~wasn't born yesterday~~ didn't have the $300 he asked for to have the money sent to me. Oh well, I guess that's how the rich get richer and us dumb folk stay poor.

I think we can all agree that is not really Tiger's yacht. Its another yacht with the same name, different registation.

That sure looks like an Ontario flag. CI's flag has a blue background, not red.

LOL...Tiger's emergency lifeboat on his yacht is bigger than some of the boats docked next to it.

Is the yacht being littered with undies from random waitresses considered an improvement?

No way sells that for more than he bought it for no matter what he improved on it unless its some rich oil guy with too much money and a love for all things Tiger.

Tiger's yacht is flying a foreign flag because it's registered in a foreign country for tax and legal reasons. It's not registered in the U.S. Look underneath "Privacy". See the words "George Town, C.I." - that means it's registered in the Cayman Islands.

A majority of large yachts are registered overseas in "flag of convenience" countries for tax and legal purposes. If not overseas, then large yachts are typically registered in a U.S. tax haven like Delaware. Just because Tiger is American and keeps his yacht in the states does not mean it has to be registered in the U.S.

Just curious, if that is Tiger's yacht, why is it flying a foreign flag. It appears to be some kind of British flag. Tiger's yacht is registered in the U.S. and would fly an American flag. Is it even the right yacht?

I hope he removes any and all traces of his DNA prior to sell.
