$95million superyacht anchors in Firth of Clyde
And the Greenock Telegraph's eagle-eyed Chief Photographer George Munro was on hand to catch a glimpse of her.
The 79.2-metre long vessel was built in 2016 when she was named Albatross, before being sold just 11 weeks after being put on the market.
She made the trip to Inverclyde from Falmouth, in Cornwall, overnight.

Moonstone has recently undergone a major re-fit at Damen Yachting's facility at Vlissingen, in the Netherlands.
The refit included a seven-metre extension, a repainted hull, enhanced guest spaces and entertainment areas.
This allowed for the addition of a beach club with a wellness centre, large outdoor pool, winter garden and enlarged exterior seating areas.
Having originally measured 72.2 metres, Moonstone relaunched in March earlier this year with a seven-metre hull extension, where 10 metres had been removed and 17 metres added.
Project manager Daan Langezaal said: "After months of work on this beautiful project, we proudly bid her farewell.
"The collaboration with the owner's team ran like clockwork, and challenges were successfully overcome. A big thank you to everyone involved in this beautiful project."
