I have to say, given your post title, the pics are a little disapointing.

Was expecting a pic of Jordan or similar.

Jordan should be the last thing you'd ecpect to see under the heading "Virgin pics"?!?!?!?!?!

Not sure about the price of the boat, but I'll try to find out. Just don't forget my finder's fee!
