We know that Friday is not gCaptain’s most popular day of the week so today’s nautical quiz should be an easy on. At least for those of you who follow the Maritime Blogosphere.

UPDATE:

Congratulations to Mike who stressfully identified this boat as “A” the personal yacht of Russian billionaire Andrey Melnichenko. You can find all the photos, video and information on this yacht at Monacoeye.com and The WSJ. Thanks to Peter for the find.
