| Michael Douglas and His Wife Catherine Z Jones are Also Sailing a Yacht |
Michael Douglas and his wife Catherine Z Jones had a yacht cruise recently. They were sailing on a luxury yacht with a crew, which was flying an American flag. The couple of Hollywood actors started off from St Tropez in the south of France last month and have been traveling through the Mediterranean sea with a group of friends.
Michael Douglas played a swashbuckling yachtsman in one of his best known films named Romancing the Stone. So Michael is familiar with yachting, the feeling of sailing on a yacht, steering a yacht. Well, both in the movie and in this yachting cruise he probably didn't steer a yacht himself, there are experts who do that. Sailing a yacht is not something new for celebrities, but they rarely steer a yacht themselves.
On this yachting cruise happened something interesting. The captain of the luxury yacht where Michael Douglas, his wife Catherine Zeta-Jones and their friends were sailing, had not reported port authorities who was on board and haven't gained the right paperwork. |
