Volcano Bay hosts the mega yacht of Ineos boss in the harbor
Explain to me in brief the following article:
The Aeolian Islands always a destination for mega yachts. Behind the island is moored Hampshire I, 78 meters long. Built by the Royal van Lent shipyard, it was designed by Redman Whitely Dixon. It belongs to Jim Ratcliff, a British businessman, chairman and owner of Ineos, a multinational chemical company. The name of the yacht pays homage to Hampshire, the largest county in southeast England, known for its history and natural beauty.
It is valued at $150 million, with annual operating costs of around $15 million. Equipped with powerful Mtu engines, it has a speed of 16 knots. It includes a beach club, a helicopter deck, and a deck that can be transformed into a sports field for ball games. For the more adventurous, guests can also enjoy an exhilarating zip line experience from the crow’s nest to the sea. Inside, there are mahogany panels, a cellar with an underwater sea observation area. Jim Ratcliff has a net worth of $15 billion. In the seven islands, it is already the third mega yacht sailing the azure sea. In the bay of Marina Lunga, the mega yacht Marala, 59 meters long, made a grand appearance. On board, it hosted King Juan Carlos of Spain, the famous artist Salvador Dalì, the legendary singer Frank Sinatra, and last June it also arrived in Panarea with King Willem-Alexander and Queen Maxima of the Netherlands. Anchored off the pumice quarries is RoMa, 62 meters long. Formerly owned by Renè Benko, an Austrian tycoon and founder of Signa Holding GmbH, the largest private real estate conglomerate in Austria.
