KANALOA • L: 157'5" Y: 1996
Kanaloa
totes an abundance of toys, such as scuba and fishing gear, an Aquafin
sailboat, windsurfers, and kayaks. She’s available for $165,000 (plus
expenses) and up per week. B: CRN, Italy; N: Builder; H: Aluminum;
E: 2/2,285-hp Deutz-MWMs
71.
ARIA • L: 156'0" Y: 2001
Floridians Bob
and Gail Milhous are such music lovers that they named their yacht in
honor of it. The saloon’s U-shape settee was specifically designed
to take full advantage of the Surround Sound audio system (including 1,000
CDs). They’re also movie buffs, with more than 200 DVDs available
on demand. B: Sensation New Zealand, New Zealand; N: Builder; H: Aluminum;
E: 2/2,650-hp Caterpillars
72.
INSPIRATION • L: 156'0" Y: 1996
Real estate developer
Charlie Roberts spent $500,000 to improve some of her spaces, like the
sundeck, to be more attractive to charterers. There’s also a baby
grand in the saloon. Inspiration is available this winter in the Caribbean
for $110,000 and up per week. B: Broward Marine, USA; N: Builder; H:
Aluminum; E: 2/2,200-hp Detroit Diesels
73.
THEMIS • L: 156'0" Y: 1998
She’s named
for the symbol of blind justice; fitting, since her owner is Ronald Motley,
a successful litigator. He’s gone after asbestos makers and tobacco
companies and just last December filed suit seeking to connect members
of the Saudi royal family as well as Saudi businesses and charities to
the September 11 attacks. B: Trinity Yachts, USA; N: Builder/Paragon
Design; H: Aluminum; E: 2/2,250-hp Caterpillars
74.
D’NATALIN II • L: 155'10" Y: 1999
D’Natalin
II was cruising in the South of France in May, where one of our faithful
readers saw the owners’ party playing cards on the aft deck. The
owners also have another yacht on our list that bears a similar name to
this one; see no. 88. B: Feadship/Royal Van Lent Shipyard, Holland;
N: De Voogt Naval Architects; H: Steel; E: 2/905-hp Caterpillars

APRIL FOOL • L: 155'8" Y: 2003
April Fool
is the first yacht to emerge from International Shipyards Ancona (also
known as ISA). She was launched in June at a lavish nighttime ceremony,
where 1,500 people watched fireworks coordinated with Handel’s “Hallelujah
Chorus.” April Fool features an innovative aft design, with
two exterior spiral staircases connecting all her decks. Her owner is
from New York. B: International Shipyards Ancona, Italy; N: Walter
Franchini; H: Steel; E: 2/MTU 4000s
76.
DOLCE FAR NIENTE • L: 155'0" Y: 1991
Formerly known as Shamwari, this Benetti sold within the past year
to an unidentified American and interestingly is for sale yet again for
$18.9 million. B: Benetti, Italy; N: Builder; H: Steel; E: 2/1,950-hp
MTUs
77.
LIQUIDITY • L: 155'0" Y: 2001
Henry and Kelly
Luken of long-distance company Covista Communications are awaiting the
delivery of a 157-footer, so they’re selling Liquidity for
$22.75 million. Hopefully they’ll cherish the memories from aboard
this yacht, such as the time that actor Jim Belushi serenaded Kelly with
“Happy Birthday” in the saloon. B: Christensen Shipyards,
USA; N: Builder; H: Fiberglass; E: 2/1,800-hp DDC-MTUs
78.
ROXANA • L: 154'0" Y: 1998
Roxana
took in the sights in Venice, Italy, last year. Her owners hail from Tulsa,
Oklahoma. B: Admiral Marine Works, USA; N: Donald Starkey/Builder;
H: Fiberglass; E: 2/1,650-hp Caterpillars
79.
CHARADE • L: 153'10" Y: 1990
Many of us yacht-watchers
thought that Jody Allen, sister of Paul Allen (see nos. 1, 3, 14), received
this Feadship from her brother a few years ago. But he actually still
owns the yacht. Perhaps not for long, as Charade is for sale for $19 million.
