With a new swim platform and just about every water toy you can imagine, “Lady E” will spend the next year cruising the world.

Could this be the future of boat building?

After being purchased by new owners, the Piano Man’s 57-foot “Vendetta” went through a two-year refit to emerge as an offshore cruiser.

One of a handful of powerful, magnificent J Class yachts, “Rainbow” is considered royalty in the sailing world.

The 147-footer’s tender lets the owners fish the world’s most remote waters, but is unique because it crosses oceans on its own power.

Design-wise, the Princess X95 is a rule-breaker. It’s not only open and spacious inside, but also has an explorer hull for long-distance cruising.

Benetti’s epic vessel was created by the world’s best unknown designer, someone who had been forced to remain anonymous until now.

The 138-ft. RP42 is unlike any other sailboat in its class, with a large covered area in the cockpit designed to host family gatherings.

‘Flying Cloud’ was one of the fastest and most beautiful commuter yachts of its day. It also had another owner as famous as Capone.

Doggersbanks may not look pretty, but are seaworthy enough to carry their owners into some very iffy waters. A 66-footer, the first to be built in 15 years, is resurrecting the brand.
