Relaxation is the focus across all of B2’s five decks and with 26 crew onboard, you can be assured of premium hospitality and service.

B2’s interior utilises a neutral colour palette throughout the cabins and interior social spaces, accented by bright bursts of colour on deck.

B2 has accommodation for 12 guests in 11 suites. The configuration comprises 9 doubles and two twins, all of which are en suite. The guest accommodation is arranged across the lower and main decks, with the master stateroom taking prime location on the upper deck and benefitting from a his-and-hers en suite complete with bath tub.

There are two saloon lounges, one on the bridge deck and one on the main deck as well as multiple exterior spaces with freestanding lounge furniture and sun pads.

Meals will be served in the upper deck dining room, which can be opened to aft to create a free-flowing dynamic between the exterior seating and the dining room, or simply provide dinner with a view. For al fresco dining and more casual lunches, the bridge deck is the location of choice.

Ascending to the sun deck, a Jacuzzi is positioned forward and enjoys uninterrupted, elevated views to the horizon. This is flanked by cushioned sun pads and there are several loungers that can be positioned to suit.

B2’s most notable feature is surely her glass-bottomed pool. Located to aft on the main deck, it resides above a gorgeous beach club lounge which, with fold-down balconies port and starboard and the influx of light through the pool above, is bathed in rippled, shaded sunshine.

Other onboard amenities include a fully equipped gym, massage room and elevator to all decks.

B2 is served by two custom tenders and guests will love taking to her selection of water toys, which includes five water scooters, stand-up paddleboards and kayaks.

B2 has stabilisers in operation for both when at anchor and underway, a top speed of 16.5 knots and a range of 6,690nm at her 13.5-knot cruising speed.

1. Specification of Large Yacht Helicopter Landing Officer Training

1.1 introduction.

The correct performance of standard procedures and a swift response to emergency situations by the helideck team are the key factors in the safety of all crew and passengers on the yacht and helicopter. The Helicopter Landing Officer (HLO) is the primary link between the yacht and the helicopter and is in overall charge of the helideck during flight operations.

Specific training shall be provided to the HLO by an appropriate training provider. 

On completion of the training, the trainees will have a good understanding of the organisational requirements for the operation of helicopters from large yacht helidecks.

1.3 Objectives

Trainees will be able to:

  • Assist the aircraft commander in completing paperwork requirements prior to flying operations.
  • Supervise a helideck team during flying operations.
  • Act as Helideck Team Leader during emergency situations.
  • Organise and conduct onboard helicopter drills to maintain helideck team training currency.

1.4 Entry Standards

Prior to attending this module, trainees must have completed the following:

  • Advanced Fire Fighting (The International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW) Code – Table A-VI/3).
  • Helideck Assistant (HDA) qualified - Large Yacht Helicopter Procedures and Emergency Response and Large Yacht Helideck Fire Fighting Courses completed.

The training provider must ensure that learners are fit to participate in all aspects of the training. If there is any doubt as to an individual’s ability to participate in such exercises an appropriate risk assessment should be carried out to determine what is required in order to proceed in a safe manner. Training providers may consider utilizing the ENG1 medical certificate, or equivalent, as an indicator of fitness.

1.5 Course Intake Limitations

The trainer to learner ratio shall not exceed 1:6 for practical and 1:12 for non-practical sessions. The training provider, having due regard to health and safety and the objectives of the training, shall determine other staffing requirements.

Practical elements are to be conducted in groups of a minimum of 3 or as per the yacht’s Helideck Landing Areas Operations Manual, whichever is greater. Practical elements should allow the trainee to lead a team of 3 personnel. These additional 2 personnel may be either trainees on the Large Yacht Helicopter Procedures and Emergency Response module or already qualified helicopter yacht crew.

1.6 Staff Requirements

Properly qualified personnel should carry out all training and assessments. All staff must:

  • Understand the specific objectives of the training,
  • Be familiar with the operation of helicopters from marine helidecks,
  • Have an understanding of instructional techniques and practices, and assessment methods and practices. As a minimum, this should meet the standards of the City & Guilds Train the Trainer course [footnote 1] , or equivalent,
  • Have an understanding of the particular problems of helicopter operations on large yachts.

1.7 Facilities

This course may be delivered onboard or ashore following a risk assessment conducted by the approved trainer to ensure the facilities are suitable.

These risk assessments shall be retained as they may be audited at Maritime & Coastguard Agency (MCA) course reapproval audits.

1.8 Training Plan

The training modules detailed in sections two to four (Large Yacht Helideck Procedures & Emergency Response Training, Large Yacht Helicopter Landing Officer Training and Large Yacht Helideck Fire Fighting training) of this syllabus may be delivered as a full-time block course of at least 16 hours duration, i.e., 16 hours contact time. If delivered in this manner, the modules need not be split equally by time but enough time must be allowed to fully cover the module.

If this module is delivered as a standalone unit, it should be provided as a full-time block course of at least six hours duration, i.e., six hours contact time.

The training should be provided over an appropriate number of days to fully cover the course criteria. A training day should have no more than eight contact hours and cannot be more than 10 hours, including relevant breaks.

It is recommended that practical work should make up at least 50% of this contact time.

1.9 Assessment

The training must be organised so that by demonstration, trainees are able to show that they meet the requirements of column 2 of Table B in accordance with the methods for demonstrating competence in column 3 of that table and the criteria for evaluating competence in column 4.

1.10 Quality Management System (QMS)

The training provider must have a formally documented health and safety management system and a QMS that complies with MSN 1865 – Amendment 1 , Annex F (or subsequent publication) and ensures: 

  • A continued satisfactory delivery of the programme to the current standards, reflecting changes of technology and best practice(s);
  • The training programme entry standards are met;
  • Where a written assessment or a practical examination is required, the same person does not carry out the training and assessment of the programme. Where two people are acting as instructors they may alternate between assessor and instructor. QMS procedures should detail how the assessment is quality assured and, if required, how continuous practical assessment is achieved;
  • Only those who complete the training programme and meet any other necessary requirements are issued with certificates/documentary evidence;
  • Certificates are issued in a format that meets the MCA requirements (available in the MCA criteria guidelines);
  • Records of certificates issued are securely maintained until the 70th birthday of the certificate holder or 5 years from the date of issue, whichever is the longer;
  • The record system enables the authenticity of certificates to be verified and replacement certificates to be issued;
  • Where approved for peripatetic delivery [footnote 2] , a formal risk assessment (see section 4.3 of MSN 1865 – Amendment 1, Annex F) is carried out to ascertain the suitability of each venue and records of such assessment are retained for 5 years. This risk assessment can be conducted by the instructor on arrival to the venue;
  • The approving MCA Marine Office has information about the dates, timing and venues of all courses delivered; and
  • Any changes made to the course content, facilities, equipment, training staff or other matters that may affect the delivery of the programme are reported to the approving Marine Office without delay.

Website warning of cyberattack in Georgia’s largest county removed after it confused some voters

Warnings of an “unexpected IT outage” Tuesday on the election website of Georgia’s most populous county prompted alarm on social media about potential problems with the state’s presidential primary, concerns election officials quickly dispelled.

A red banner atop county webpages warning of a “System Outage” was actually related to a January cyberattack that temporarily crippled government services in Fulton County, which includes Atlanta. It did not indicate any problems with Tuesday’s voting, officials said.

“Today has gone relatively uneventful, smooth,” Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, a Republican, told reporters during an afternoon media briefing.

Some users on X, formerly known as Twitter, questioned whether the warning banner was a sign of a “glitch” or primary election “cheating.” Others wondered if it indicated problems at the polls.

The banner had been posted on county web pages since well before the final day of primary voting and warned of an “unexpected IT outage currently affecting multiple systems.” It directed visitors to a March 4 update about the cyberattack and the progress the county has made to restore services.

Fulton County removed the warning banner from its website, including the elections page, after the concerns raised on social media. What remained was a separate one that directed voters to search for their assigned voting location or check wait times.

“Although the alert had been in place since the end of January, we learned today that it was causing possible confusion for voters,” Fulton County spokesperson Jessica Corbitt said in an email. “Fulton County is committed to ensuring that our voters have access to accurate and timely information, and will always try to prevent and address misinformation.”

Election officials in Georgia, particularly in Fulton County, are especially sensitive to questions about the voting process or fairness of the vote. It was one of the states where former President Donald Trump disputed his narrow loss to Joe Biden in 2020 and where he and others face criminal charges for attempting to overturn the results. Conspiracy theories also have led to death threats against some Fulton County election workers.

The county previously told The Associated Press that there was no indication election systems were targeted in the cyberattack, but that Fulton County and the secretary of state’s technology systems were isolated from one another as a precaution.

Corbitt said Tuesday that the investigation into the cyberattack “is ongoing” and said she could not comment on any data that may have been affected.

Other than the confusion caused by the warning banner, the Georgia Secretary of State’s office said it had seen only minor issues during Tuesday’s voting. Gabriel Sterling, the office’s chief operating officer, said two precincts would remain open past the scheduled closing time because they had opened late.

One was in Cobb County, where the poll workers did not have the code to the key pad, and the other was in Gwinnett County, where a poll manager had been trying to fix a printer.
