I'm struggling to come up with a reason why the designer wouldn't slap a couple of power hookups to the thing so you could plug it into a marina while docked. Like obviously porky isn't giving that any thought, but the people he's paying to build the yacht had to at some point right?

maybe docking is more expensive than anchoring and popping off for a shitton of gas now and then?

it's really not marina space is far cheaper than diesel. Anyway the rich normally consider being docked in expensive marinas to be part of the status of the boat
