"Blue Guitar" Yacht
Great day for yacht viewing on the Ct. river area in and around Essex,Ct. where we spotted a classic yacht flying the "Union Jack" flag. The yacht appropriately named "Blue Guitar" for the owner of this jewel, namely, Eric Clapton. Way to cool!!!

Re: "Blue Guitar" Yacht
That is not Eric Clapton's boat. Clapton's yacht is named "Va Bene" :

There is another "Blue Guitar" yacht that I found. The CNN article pointed me to this one.

Re: "Blue Guitar" Yacht
Blue guitar is owned by a famous guitar guy. Pretty sure it is Eric Clapton.

Re: "Blue Guitar" Yacht
So which picture is his "boat"? I love that term for something this size. I remember a thread on here discussing what determined a "yacht". I think these both qualify.
As to EC... he is very unpretentious. My nephew met him in a bar in Asheville NC at a Jean Jacques Cale show. (J.J. Cale) He was there just to support and enjoy his friend.

I can't relax out on the boat
