85: Leander

Leander enjoys a great reputation as a charter yacht with worldwide destinations that range from the Baltic to the Bahamas. The English manor house décor features overstuffed sofas and chairs and a baby grand piano, and her stern and forward decks offer great vistas. Leander has a crew of 25 and a formal dining room that seats 20.

83: Northern Star

The experienced owners of this expedition-style vessel, who also cruise on Meteor, like to explore faraway places. Espen Øino and Lürssen’s engineering took their cue from naval ships and destroyers to come up with an efficient hull that can go more than 8,500 miles without refueling.

82: Reborn

This superyacht launched as Boadicea, Queen of the Iceni Celts, whose history is both bloody and glorious. She was defeated in 61 AD when 10,000 Roman legionaries annihilated 200,000 of her soldiers. Boadicea played the politics and war game brilliantly and perhaps that is why her ex-owner, Australian game show producer Reg Grundy, named his yacht.

81: Anastasia

Sam Sorgiovanni designed the stunning Anastasia for an active Russian family. This yacht is an instant classic with beautiful details that also help conceal its recreational spaces from curious onlookers. A large garage accommodates water toys, including two custom 31-foot Vikal Sport tenders, a limo tender and four WaveRunners, all housed in the impeccably finished garage.

80: Ocean Victory

Built at De Vries’ Makkum yard, this classic Feadship is very discreet. Among the great onboard amenities are a heated contra-flow swimming pool, a 12-seat cinema, a beach platform and an LED lighting system that lights the decks in a rainbow of colors. Alberto Pinto and Laura Sessa created the yacht’s interior décor.

79: Lady Sarya

Rinaldo Gastaldi was the naval architect who originally designed this very distinctive yacht in 1972 for American construction magnate William Levitt, of “Levittown” fame. Levitt’s company, Levitt & Sons, created large suburban developments of prefabricated single-family homes, beginning in 1950 on Long Island.

77: Samar

Samar made a visit to the 2009 Antigua Yacht Charter Show that was much-noted, and for good reasons: This five-deck yacht is a showstopper. Visitors step from the aft deck into the interior of a grand castle.

76: Tango

London-based Eidsgaard Design styled this striking and award-winning Feadship, built at the Royal Van Lent shipyard in cooperation with Edmiston. Eidsgaard Design also did this yacht’s interior design. The firm shows a real knack for creativity, evident at first glance on this yacht’s superstructure styling.

75: Montkaj

When Amels launched Montkaj in 1995 her length was 246 feet, which made the largest yacht built in the Netherlands at the time. A major refit in 2000 extended the yacht longer by 10 feet. Prince Mohammed, son of the late King Fahd, owns Montkaj, one of the world’s most secretive yachts.

This Espen Øino-designed yacht is the former American-owned Madsummer. Along with the new name comes a new hull paint, which was done at the Rybovich yard in Palm Beach, Florida. Gone is the pale-blue hull color scheme, but designer Alberto Pinto’s elegant and colorful summer-home interior décor remains.
