#73: IROQUOIS—164'0"

Unfortunately www.yachtiroquois.com is still under construction a year after we discovered it, but you can still e-mail the captain to say hi. Maybe he can tell you about their summertime visit to New York City. But he probably won't divulge details about the nuptials of Theo Epstein, general manager of the Boston Red Sox, which reportedly occurred aboard in January. Epstein's boss, John Henry, owns the Feadship and the team.

INTERACTIVE DECK PLANS
Click on any of the indicated areas on the deck plans for images of the megayacht's interior.

Despite its bar, this lounge is used more as a family room, thanks to its breakfast/games table, home theater, and sofas. Madrona panels and wenge inlays highlight the owner's stateroom; the cabinet holds a Surround Sound entertainment system. The owner's private, fully sound-insulated music studio has equipment such as video and sound recorders and editors, a mixing panel, and synthesizers. This guest cabin has a pullman bed and can double as a gym. Perhaps the most visually appealing area on Iroquois is her curving, free-standing staircase at the main entrance, featuring 275 blocks of sapeli. Why hide the crystal when you can make it part of the overall artistic treatment of the dining area? The decor employs Asian influences that are underscored by Art Deco elements, most notably here in the saloon.
