"Long Description:

The Vagrant is the ex-Beatles yach now turned in a bar/restaurant in downtown Funchal in Madeira island.

The Beatles bought it in 1966 and used it to get away from all the craziness of super-stardom. The story goes that after Apple sold it in the early 70s, it hung out in Morocco, and was finally squodged by a storm in the Canaries.

It´s main characteristics are:

Lenght - 38.6 m

Width - 8.25 m

Draft - 3.4 m

Gross Tonnage 238 Tons

Engine - 600 h.p

Electric generators, radar, nautical equipment and a speed boat.

The Vagrant was built in 1941 at the "Bath of Iron Works" shipyard in Maine, USA for the Multimillionaire Horace P. Vanderbuilt.

It was considered one of the most luxurious yaches in the world at the time (it´s portholes were painted in Gold).

However, it was it´s acquisition by "The Beatles" in 1966 that gave the "Vagrant" worldwide notoriety."

... aparece, filmado por uma 8mm:

Citando:
"An 11-second clip of the Beatles' only live appearance on the Top of the Pops, which was thought to have been be lost, has been unearthed in Mexico.

The silent snippet is all that exists of the Fab Four miming to Paperback Writer on the BBC pop show in 1966.

The original tapes were not kept, but it was recorded by a viewer filming their TV set with an 8mm camera.

The footage was shot by a family in Liverpool and eventually fell into the hands of a collector in Mexico.

The collector contacted Kaleidoscope, a Birmingham-based organisation specialising in locating previously missing TV footage.

"I think if you're a Beatles fans, it's the holy grail," Kaleidoscope's Chris Perry told BBC entertainment correspondent Colin Paterson.

"People thought it was gone forever because videotape wasn't kept in 1966. To find it all these years later was stunning.""
