Cork proving a super berth for super yachts

One of the world’s largest private yachts is due to slip in to a Cork marina today, further cementing the south coast’s reputation as a ‘must-see stop-off’ for the super-rich cruise set.

But mystery surrounds the identity of the guests on board the sleek €45m Fortunate Sun.

The 54-metre (177-foot) motor yacht, which was built for a wealthy US-based pharmaceutical boss 10 years ago, is due to arrive at the Kinsale marina this morning.
