The “Archimedes” was cruising by Fort Pickens this morning, with perfect timing from the Blue Angels and the moment was caught by the extraordinary JK Adams Photography.
Archimedes is a 222′ superyacht owned by mathematician billionaire James Simons. Built in 2008 by the Dutch-owned Feadship, it is powered by twin Caterpillar engines. It can accommodate 12 guests (with 6 bedrooms) and has room for 18 crew members.
James Simons is an American mathematician, businessman, and philanthropist. His net worth is $29 billion, and he resides with his wife in Long Island, New York. He is the founder of Renaissance Technologies, a quantitative hedge fund management company that uses mathematical and statistical methods to analyze financial markets.
