Launched in 2008, another yacht built under a blanket of high security in a German shipyard is Mayan Queen IV. Formerly known as Project Safari, she is understood to be owned by Mexican mining, insurance and department store magnate Alberto Baillères, the second richest man in Mexico and fourth in Latin America.
He recently sold his earlier vessel, the 49m Feadship–Van Lent Mayan Queen (now Marion Queen). Mayan Queen IV has a touch-and-go helipad on the foredeck and two tender garages, one forward and one aft, the latter being convertible into a beach club when the tender is launched.
