Unexpected Encounter: Tone Michelsen Blindheim Comes Face to Face with Billion-Dollar Yacht near Her Islet

Tone Michelsen Blindheim was surprised when she discovered an enormous yacht worth billions of dollars near her islet in Færavåg, Tysnes. But not impressed. She would rather have one of the light boats. The yacht belongs to the American billionaire Eric Smidt, and it is estimated that he is worth over NOK 100 billion. Show more

It was BA who first mentioned this matter.

Although the surprise was great, she still did not allow herself to be too impressed by this boat. But of course she had to film the solid boat.

– What surprised me the most was how on earth such a boat had found its way here, what were they supposed to do here, says Tone Michelsen Blindheim to VG.

It is no trifle of a boat that had anchored outside her cabin. According to the website superyachtfan, it is the American billionaire Eric Smidt who owns the boat.

He should be worth over NOK 100 billion, according to BA, which refers to Forbes. Then he can obviously also afford a yacht like the Infinit, which is said to have cost the tidy sum of NOK 3 billion to build.

But then Eric Smidt and his family have a boat that is 117 meters long to romp around on, two landing spots for helicopters – and eight luxury cabins where there is room for 16 guests. But to go out on tour, the billionaire must bring a crew of 32 with him.

– We also had to learn a bit about this boat. But to be perfectly honest, I’d rather have one of the light boats. They were nice, says Michelsen Blindheim.

Although it was both fun and interesting to experience such a boat up close in her own holiday paradise, she would in no way characterize this as the summer’s great experience.

– No, it was when we had a grandson visiting who caught a fish of almost five kilos. It was the summer’s great experience, says Tone Michelsen Blindheim.
