ARIA
156'0" 2001 Named for her owners'
love of music, Aria is the largest motoryacht to be built in New
Zealand so far. In keeping with her name, she has an extensive audio system
and a library containing hundreds of CDs that the owners and guests can
access from the staterooms, saloon, and sky lounge at the press of a button.
(For more details, see "Song of the South Pacific," this issue.)

INSPIRATION
156'0" 1996
The Atlanta-based owner of this lady took her to Hilton Head, South Carolina,
this summer in time to enjoy the Fourth of July fireworks. She's
also the largest American-owned yacht built by Broward Marine. B:
Broward Marine, USA; N: Builder; H: Aluminum; E:

THEMIS
156'0" 1998 This yacht is definitely for
relaxing, given the granite-topped bar aft in her saloon and another bar
in the sky lounge. There's also an abundance of well-crafted, warm-hued
pear wood throughout. Her namesake is the symbol of blind justice.

D'NATALIN II
155'10" 1999 Herb
Chambers (see no. 18) sold this yacht a few months ago to another American.
She features a blue hull, curved transom, and partially upturned radar
arch--the ends of the base were designed to replicate a manta ray
in motion. B: Feadship/C. Van Lent en Zonen, Holland; N:
de Voogt International Ship Design and Engineering; H: Steel; E:

LIQUIDITY
155'0" 2001 High-gloss walnut
wood dominates the interior of this new Christensen, delivered in time
to spend some of the summer in Alaska. Whether they want to retire to
their staterooms or head up to the sunbeds on the flying bridge, the owners
and guests can take advantage of an elevator, designed and engineered
by the shipyard. B: Christensen Shipyards, USA; N: Builder;
H: Fiberglass; E: 2/1,800-hp DDC-MTUs

SHAMWARI
155'0" 1991 A Beverly Hills entrepreneur
who ran a company that markets weight-loss and nutritional elixirs owned
this yacht until his sudden death last year. His wife sold her to another
American who kept the name intact. It means "friend" in the
Shona language of Zimbabwe. B: Benetti, Italy; N: Builder;
H: Steel; E: 2/1,950-hp MTUs

ROXANA
154'0" 1998 A Midwestern couple

woodwork and a spectacular mural that covers every square inch of the
circular dining room. B: Admiral Marine Works, USA; N:

68.
CHARADE
153'10" 1990 Jody Allen, sister of Paul Allen (see no.
11), owns this Feadship. Charade spent time in Sydney, Australia,
last year during the Olympics. Rumors abound that since her big bro gave
her this yacht when he took delivery of the 199-footer, he'll give
her Méduse when he takes delivery of his cruise-ship-size yacht.

DAYBREAK
153'3" 1997 Like
many megayachts, this one spends winters in the Caribbean and summers
in the Mediterranean. A gentleman from South Florida stepped up to her
from a 130-footer. B: Feadship/C. Van Lent en Zonen, Holland;

CHARISMA
153'0" 1995 Talk
about being pampered: Charterers are treated to queen-size berths in three
of the five guest staterooms aboard (the remaining two rooms have twin
berths). White-lacquered walls offset the opulent furnishings. You can
catch up with her in the Caribbean for $125,000 per week. B:

CHANTAL MA VIE
152'0" 1984 Talk
about being close to the water: Chantal Ma Vie has a large Jacuzzi just
forward of the swim platform. There's a beautiful compass rose inlaid
on her wood sole in the saloon. She'll be island-hopping this winter
for $55,000 per week. B: John Nylen, USA; N:

MONITOR
152'0" 1982/1999 Beautiful
wood paneling, as well as watertoys ranging from windsurfers to scuba
gear, are highlights of this charter yacht. She's available for
$77,000 and up per week in the Mediterranean. B: Picchiotti,
Italy; N: Arthur DeFever/Murray & Associates; H:
Steel; E: 2/850-hp Caterpillars

MONTIGNE
152'0" 1986 The
Pacific Northwest was on Montigne's agenda for the summer
season. She has a lovely interior and plenty of watersports equipment,
which is sure to be put to good use this winter while she's in the
Caribbean. B: Feadship/De Vries Scheepsbouw, Holland; N:
H.W. De Voogt & Zoon; H: Steel; E: 2/900-hp Caterpillars
74.
FRANCINE
151'3" 1989/1999 Mahogany
accentuates the main-deck lounge's club-like feel; it's really
more of a smoking lounge where the owners enjoy after-dinner drinks and
cigars. The traditional saloon is up on the bridge deck, where a collection
of Biot glass is on display. B: Benetti, Italy/International
Marine Service, France; N: Builder/Tom Fexas Yacht Design; H:
Aluminum; E: unknown
75.
AFFINITY
151'0" 1999 Affinity's
owners have a real affinity for cruising--they commissioned the yacht
purposely to cross the Pacific to arrive in New Zealand in time for the
last America's Cup race. She's traveled back to our shores
for pleasure trips since then. Her interior showcases clever nautical
touches: A tapering column in the saloon resembles an old ship's
mast, and the curved banister on the stairs to the lower deck replicates
a tiller. B: Delta Marine, USA; N: Delta Design Group;
H: Fiberglass; E: 2/1,000-hp Caterpillars
