9. About the size of a Destroyer

The Arleigh Burke Class Destroyers are just over 500’.

The Iowa Class Battleships (Iowa, New Jersey, Missouri & Wisconsin) were 880’ or so.

The South Dakota Class (South Dakota, Indiana, Massachusetts & Alabama) were 680’

3. To get some impression of the size I overlayed an outline in Google Earth on

the satellite image of where I live. Unbelievable, area of a football field.

The cost of one of these superyachts is five percent of US political spending for ALL 2020 federal races, President, Senate, and House.

7. Even if it IS Putin's yacht, it is probably not in his name

Maybe it belongs to his reclusive rich friend, Ayam Notexistin, who lets his good buddy, Vladimir, have use of the ship when he feels the need.

8. Good grief!

We are going to hell in a mega basket.
