These old anchor ties on the cobblestones at Memphis river front.
They're over 150 years old.
When just a kid, I remember my father's crew tying up his boat to these very same rings.

'My Other Yacht Is a Support-Yacht'
Well, of course it is...
Support yachts are for people who have outgrown their
mega-yachts and need more space for their helicopters, speedboats,
launches and submarines. The support yacht acts as a floating garage,
trailing alongside the main yacht with all of the owner's oversized
"toys."
While support yachts have been around for a while, the yacht-maker Amels has launched the Rolls Royce of support yachts -- the Sea Axe -- a gleaming, 220-feet ship that can hold a mega-chopper, loads of speedboats, a submarine, and all the scuba gear, jet skis and floaties an oligarch or sheik could ever want.
