One of the largest private sailing yachts in the world has dropped anchor in the Firth of Clyde near Largs.
Eos is reportedly owned by New York power couple Fox TV mogul Barry Diller and his fashion designer wife Diane Von Furstenberg.
The $200 million, three-masted Bermuda rigged schooner accommodates 14 people in seven cabins and is serviced by a crew of 21.

Delivered in 2006, the 305-feet Eos has since travelled over 200,000 nautical miles and has hosted guests such as former president and CEO of Amazon Jeff Bezos.
Until 2017 she remained the world’s largest luxury sailing yacht at a length of 93 metres.
Earlier this month, the yacht was spotted in Loch Broom off Ullapool, having arrived from Hamburg.
Ullapool Bookshop shared photos of the yacht on social media, writing: “This beautiful yacht arrived in Loch Broom and what a sight she is.
“It's the EOS, the 3rd largest privately owned yacht in the world & I think she looks majestic, moored in the loch.”
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
