'She's a lady,' Hansen says emphatically. 'Treat her right, and she will give back.' And indeed she has. The opulently appointed steam yacht has responded well to a lengthy restoration process that has both brought her up to today's standards and revived the beauty and glamour of her past. http://www.yachtchartersmagazine.com/read/49215.htmhttp://www.yachtchartersmagazine.com/read/49215.htm Thu, 14 Apr 2005 00:00:00 GMT The last 14 years have seen some notable changes in the yacht market, with boats getting increasingly larger and interiors breaking out of any set molds.

Woods filed suit in Miami federal court, stating Christensen, from whom Woods bought a $20 million yacht, used his celebrity status as an ill-gained endorsement for the company.
