PRINCESS MARLA • L: 162'0" Y: 1995
From October of
last year through this past February, the South China Sea was Princess
Marla’s cruising ground of choice. That’s not the only thing
that’s unusual about her: The master suite’s king-size bed is
draped with chinchilla. B: Feadship/De Vries Scheepsbouw, Holland;
N: F. W. De Voogt Naval Architects; H: Steel; E: 2/2,800-hp Caterpillars
61.
TE MANU • L: 161'9" Y: 1984
One of the owners
of the Indiana Pacers, Mel Simon, has hosted great parties on his yacht.
We’ve yet to learn if he’s invited any of the players aboard,
the way Paul Allen (see nos. 1, 3, and 14) has with members of the Portland
Trailblazers. It might be difficult, though, considering Te Manu sticks
to the South Pacific. B: Codecasa, Italy; N: Builder; H: Steel; E:
2/2,200-hp Caterpillars
62.
MICHAELA ROSE • L: 161'5" Y: 1984
A real-estate
developer from Texas has not only enjoyed several cruises on both sides
of the globe onboard, but he also commissioned a scale replica of her
from Maritime Replicas, which has done the same for many owners. B:
Fr. Schweers, Germany; N: Builder; H: Steel; E: 2/1,037-hp Deutz-MWMs

ANSON BELL • L: 161'0" Y: 2002
Hubbard Communications
was awarded $1 million in damages after suing Palmer Johnson over this
yacht, claiming she wasn’t delivered on time and didn’t meet
certain specifications. Despite that, Anson Bell is still regarded as
one of the safest yachts on the water. She exceeds some of the requirements
set by the MCA Code, and she even has safety gates on deck that keep children
from tumbling down stairs. She’s for sale for $29.5 million; excluded
is a remarkable piece of history. In a special niche onboard, there’s
the bell from the HMS Anson, a 19th-century English ship that was destroyed
in a storm and whose tragic story inspired Hubbard to set high safety
standards for the yacht. B: Palmer Johnson, USA; N: Sparkman &
Stephens; H: Aluminum; E: 2/2,000-hp Caterpillars
64.
EVVIVA • L: 160'10" Y: 1993
When Evviva
was under construction, many a skeptic said it was too risky to build
such a large yacht out of fiberglass; ten years later those folks are
still eating their words. Orin Edson, the founder of Bayliner, has his
yacht kept in tip-top shape inside and out. People who’ve been aboard
say that even the bathtubs get a waxing twice a year. B: Admiral Marine
Works USA; N: Bill Garden/Donald Starkey; H: Fiberglass; E: 3/2,480-hp

FLORIDIAN • L: 160'6" Y: 1988
Montana industrialist Dennis Washington sold this yacht, the ex-Attessa,
within the past year to another American. No doubt the current owner enjoys
midnight movies on the top deck, thanks to a screen that drops down from
the radar arch. B: Feadship/Royal Van Lent Shipyard, Holland; N: H.W.
De Voogt Naval Architects; H: Steel; E: 2/730-hp Detroit Diesels
66.
TELEOST • L: 160'5" Y: 1998
Teleost has chartered in the Med and the Caribbean. She’s
also been to Costa Rica. B: Feadship/Royal Van Lent Shipyard, Holland;
N: H.W. De Voogt Naval Architects; H: Steel; E: 2/905-hp Caterpillars
67.
GALLANT LADY • L: 160'0" Y: 2000
This was the first Gallant Lady to be built in the USA since 1982.
Jim and Jan Moran (see no. 37) like to cruise in warm-weather climates;
the yacht recently visited the U.S. and British Virgin Islands as well
as the Bahamas. B: Delta Marine, USA; N: Delta Design Group; H: Aluminum;
E: 2/1,100-hp Caterpillars
68.
MI GAEA • L: 158'3" Y: 1990
Her name means
Mother of the Titans in Greek mythology. There will be another Titan of
sorts within the next year, as we hear the owners are having a 245-footer
built here in the States. B: Feadship/De Vries Scheepsbouw, Holland;
N: H.W. De Voogt Naval Architects; H: Steel; E: 2/900-hp Caterpillars
69.
NOA VII • L: 158'0" Y: 1997
Previously known as Katrion, this yacht is for sale for $26 million.
B: Feadship/ Royal Van Lent Shipyard, Holland; N: De Voogt Naval Architects;
H: Steel; E: 2/905-hp Caterpillars
