Jho Low’s beloved super-yacht, now docked in Singapore, gets a new name.

The super-yacht at the center of the 1MDB financial scandal, the floating monstrosity Jho Low once entertained Miranda Kerr in, has a new name, kids — and wouldn’t you know it, you would have only needed a basic thesaurus to come up with this skillful rebranding.

Ship-tracking website Marine Traffic reported that the automatic identification system now states that the vessel’s name is indeed, Tranquility, when it sends automatic transmissions to transponders on other ships. Allegedly owned by Jho Low, it had been reported to be valued at somewhere in the US$250 million ballpark.

Apparently, they hope that their latest acquisition will give them a “unique and competitive edge” for their VIP clientele.Genting Malaysia is part of a wider Genting Group, who own and operate several casinos around the world, including in Genting Highlands, and on Singapore’s luxury Sentosa Island.
