DETROIT EAGLE
151'0" 2001
Ohio native
and International Motorsports Hall of Famer Roger Penske took delivery
of his latest megayacht in time to enjoy the summer in New England. She
has an aluminum and composite superstructure, LIPS propellers, and a gas
turbine to give her the 33-plus-knot speeds she attains. B:

SALLY ANN
151'0" 1996 Classic
mahogany paneling makes Sally Ann a real beauty, as does a tropical
mural in the master head. One smart touch we’d like to see more
of on these yachts: a head concealed in the mast on the flying bridge
for the convenience of sunbathers. B: Delta Marine, USA; N:
Delta Design Group; H: Fiberglass; E: 2/855-hp Caterpillars
78.
SEA JEWEL
151'0" 1987
After wrapping
up the charter season in the Med, Sea Jewel headed to the Caribbean. Stops
on her itinerary for the winter season include St. Lucia and St. Thomas.
We’d do anything to be a fly on the wall when the guests crank up
the karaoke machine in the sky lounge after dinner. B: Feadship/De
Vries Scheepsbouw, Holland; N: H.W. de Voogt & Zoon; H:
Steel; E: 2/Caterpillar 3508s
79.
TURMOIL
151'0" 1996 A
successful clothing retailer has had this blue-hulled beauty on the go
so much over the past five years—she was in the Arctic this summer—that
essentially the only time she’s sat still was during refueling.
Turmoil was the first purpose-built expedition-style yacht of the
1990s, a style that’s still quite popular. B: Palmer Johnson,
USA; N: Dick Boon/Vripack Yachting; H: Aluminum; E: 2/820-hp
Caterpillars

THE HIGHLANDER
151'0" 1986
If yachts could
leave grooves in the water, then the Statue of Liberty would have a ditch
at her feet from The Highlander, which makes almost nightly cruises
past her during the summer. The yacht hosts corporate events for the renowned
Forbes family. B: Feadship/De Vries Scheepsbouw, Holland; N:
Jon Banneberg/H.W. de Voogt & Zoon; H: Steel; E: 2/1,060-hp

FORTUNATE SUN

yacht spent the summer chartering in the Med, remaining there through

governing large yachts. She’s for sale for $19.45 million. B:

AMORAZUR II
149'10" 1994
A complete decor
change two years ago thanks to Terence Disdale gave this Palmer Johnson
a classic, understated look. Warm tones envelop each room, and there’s
a piano in her saloon. For on-the-water fun, there’s a pair of hydrobikes.
She charters for $145,000 per week in the Bahamas and is for sale for
$18.5 million. B: Palmer Johnson, USA; N: Builder/Tom
Fexas Yacht Design; H: Aluminum; E: 2/1,900-hp Deutz-MWMs

guests aboard. Ports of call included Nice and Rome. Her four staterooms
below decks can transform into two large suites. B: Oceanfast,
Australia; N: Phil Curran/Donald Starkey; H: Aluminum; E:
2/3,500-hp Alsthom Paxmans
87.
CHEROSA
149'7" 1999 A
green hull makes Cherosa immediately recognizable, and you’d
be remiss not to admire her lines up close if you get the chance—there’s
not a single flat panel on her hull. The subtle compound curves make her
a real conversation piece. A couple who split their time between Connecticut
and Florida’s east coast live aboard her a good deal of the year.
B: Swiftships, USA; N: Tim Borland/Builder; H:
Aluminum; E: 2/2,250-hp MTUs
88.
BIG D
147'6" 1988 A
29-foot beam ensures the entertainment spaces aboard Big D are
exactly that, big. Ten to 12 guests can enjoy her extensive deck areas,
including a shaded sun deck. She’s available for charter in the
Med for $91,000 and up per week. B: Hitachi Zosen, Japan; N:
Jack Hargrave; H: Aluminum; E: 2/1,150-hp Caterpillars
