Troubled Jupiter Island golfer Tiger Woods is putting his mega yacht Privacy up for sale, Page2Live has learned.

Privacy

Woods

A Woods camp insider is telling me the golfer originally offered the 155-foot Christensen ship to ex-wife Elin Nordegren as his wedding present in 2004.

But Nordegren turned down the yacht during divorce-settlement talks with philandering Woods last summer.

“She didn’t want it because the upkeep is incredibly expensive,” the source said.

With a permanent crew of 13, Privacy costs more than $2 million a year to maintain.

Woods had the vessel sailed south to Fort Lauderdale in the fall. It was dry-docked in a yard for two months to paint the hull and re-surface the deck.

Privacy is now back at its home-port in North Palm Beach’s Old Port Cove, and Woods is shopping for a broker to list it for $25 million.

Rough day for Lt. Swank (Special to the Palm Beach Post)

I’m told the snoring could be heard across the room!

To the right, fellow taxpayer, is Lt. Jeff Swank, the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office Internal Affairs executive officer!

And this cell-phone picture of Swank sound asleep obtained by Page2Live has been making the rounds among the chuckling rank and file.

How do I know he’s snoring?

Well, there’s a video, and the sound is quite clear.

I’ve been trying to get a hold of it, but I’m told by an insider that Internal Affairs head Capt. Larry Easton, to0, is hot on the trail of the footage.

Swank was among 70 local enforcement officials at a three-day class last week at the Hilton Palm Beach Airport.

The classroom training focused on the handling of police-involved shootings.

But Swank apparently got so bored he dozed off while fellow policemen, who must have been just as bored, snapped away with cell phones.

Swank’s I.A. squad, by the way, does investigate incidents in which deputies are “rude” during such training sessions.

Said PBSO Chief Deputy Mike Gauger: “Lt. Swank attends college after hours and he was called out twice the previous night.

“Things happen. I fall asleep at church sometimes!”

Fox News star Bill O’Reilly (above) spent most of his keynote address at a Palm Beach fundraising gala Friday imagining a world where Donald Trump (above) would be president.

Trump, 64, who hosted Friday’s fiesta for the It Happened to Alexa Foundation at his Mar-a-Lago club, is weeks away from announcing whether he’ll run for the land’s highest office as a Republican.

“It’s gratifying to have the next president of the United States introduce me,” the host of The O’Reilly Factor said to thunderous applause from the 200-plus at the dinner.

Some of the guests paid $1,500 for a few seconds with the 61-year-old O’Reilly (below), a photo and an autographed copy of his latest tome, Pinheads and Patriots.

Tall head O’Reilly, for whom it was the second appearance at the victims’ advocate foundation’s gala, then dreamed out loud about a Trump White House. At time he seemed to joke. At others he appeared serious. Always, he seemed to take a Trump candidacy for granted.

Mosher's booking mug (Click on the photo for more)

A well-known Palm Beach State College adjunct professor and freshly-retired Palm Beach County Sheriff’s deputy was held overnight in the county slammer where he once worked after being arrested in a domestic violence incident.

Seventy-year-old Charlie Mosher, of Royal Palm Beach, was charged with aggravated stalking and aggravated assault after several alleged spats with his estranged wife, Norma Jean Hoefs, since last week. Hoefs, 57, declined comment but confirmed she was his victim.

Mosher allegedly harassed the lady with incessant phone calls then tailed her in his car around their gated community.

At one point, Hoefs told investigators, she had to swerve off the road to avoid Mosher, who came right at her in his vehicle.

Mosher was released on $10,000-bond about noon today.

He was relieved of duty as a reserve deputy, a volunteer position. Mosher retired from PBSO in June after 22 years as corrections and training deputy.

The six criminal justice courses he taught at the college this term — including “interpersonal skills for corrections officers” and “defensive tactics” — have ended.

The school’s spokeswoman, Dr. Grace Truman, said Mosher has been an adjunct professor since 1992. His status at the school will be evaluated before next term, as is the status of every adjunct professor, she said.

Lahti (via Facebook)

Golfer Tiger Woods is back on the dating scene, and somehow landed a pretty, 22-year-old graduate student at West Palm Beach’s Northwood University, according to several unconfirmed news reports.

According to records the woman, identified as Alyse Lahti, lived down the street from Woods in Windermere, near Orlando, with her stepdad.

The stepdad, Alastair Johnston, is a high-ranking employee of IMG, the sports agency that represents Woods.

A woman at Johnston’s other home in Cleveland, where IMG is based, and where Lahti grew up, told Page2Live that Lahti no longer lives there and couldn’t be contacted. Lahti didn’t respond to emails asking for comment.

As a Northwood student, Lahti once again lives close to Woods, whose new home is in Jupiter Island.

With blue eyes and blonde hair Lahti, 13 years younger than Woods, bears a faint resemblance to Elin Nordegren, Woods’ ex-wife and the recent buyer of a $12.2 million-house at Seminole Landing in North Palm Beach.
