Magens Bay

Post by USVIBamaFan »

We arrived in St Thomas on Saturday, and have settled in our house above Magen's....since we've been here there has been a huge yacht there...of course, the topic of discussion has been who does it belong to? Anyone know?

The trip has been fantastic so far...we love it here!

Saw a picture of it on Facebook. Doesn't look familiar. See if you can catch a name on it, then Google it. Answers usually there. That's what I do when I see them here in the harbor!

Thanks Ron...was in town this morning and was told it was the "Rising Sun" - haven't been able to see any thing to identify it by! It's still there today -

Larry Ellison of Oracle owned this vessel and I believe he has since partnered with or sold it outright to David Geffen.

Just drove up the Hull Bay road and saw it. Definitely the Rising Sum. It is now solely owned by David Geffen.
