big joy yacht

This custom-made modern-style 27.5m motor yacht.

This custom-made modern-style 27.5m motor yacht was designed and constructed for a private client, catering to their family’s cruising needs. The boat offers exceptional interior and exterior space, surpassing similar-sized vessels thanks to its generous beam and four decks.

The boat features three guest cabins and one crew cabin on the lower deck, with a spacious saloon and galley on the main deck. The upper deck houses the master cabin and wheelhouse.

The Future Line boasts sharp and modern exterior lines, along with expansive open areas on the main, upper, and flybridge decks. It comes equipped with a hydraulic lifting at the swimming platform, which also serves as the tender boat storage area, along with water toys and a workbench. A dedicated space under the deck houses the jetski, launched through a side door on the hull. The anchor windlasses are located under the deck, ensuring a clear space on the bow deck even when at anchor.

Twin 1,400 HP MAN engines and four electric stabilizers guarantee fast and comfortable cruises. This project, constructed under RINA hull rules and CE certification, showcases the yard’s diverse capabilities.

A look at the most expensive superyachts at the Palm Beach yacht show and their insane features, from basketball courts on deck to ice baths and saunas

• The Palm Beach International Boat Show kicks off later this week.
• Eight megayachts are expected to be on display for would-be buyers and charter customers.
• These are the show's biggest yachts — and how many millions of dollars they are going for.

The Palm Beach International Boat Show — the yacht world's flashiest event stateside — is returning this year with over 800 boats for both deep-pocketed potential owners and window shoppers to peruse.

While it's impossible to know what exactly will be on display until the show begins on Thursday, it's expected that eight megayachts — generally defined as ships over 60 meters long — will be docked at the show and at nearby marinas like the Rybovich Marina in the ritzy Florida town.

Some of these are for sale at eye-popping prices, but others are available to if in case you fancy living like a billionaire for a week or two this summer (and if you have six figures to spare on a vacation).

These are the eight biggest yachts that will be at the Palm Beach International Boat Show and nearby marinas, in size order.

Nero: 90.1 meters

Price: From $497,000 a week (charter) Standout features: Pizza ovens, beauty salon, massage room, resistance pool

Reportedly owned by Irish billionaire Denis O'Brien, Nero is modeled after J.P. Morgan's 1930s ship , and was built in 2007 and updated in 2021.

She now boasts a gym on her sundeck with multiple cardio machines and a beauty salon, and has an on-board beautician for manicure, pedicure, hair, and massage needs. There's also an upgraded movie theater, two new pizza ovens, and both a pool and a jacuzzi.

For those who want to go overboard, she has more than a dozen toys, including a waterslide, Jet Ski, and flyboard.

Victorious: 85 meters

Price: From $876,600 a week in the summer and $950,000 a week in the winter Standout features: Hammam (Turkish bath), wine cellar, wood-burning fireplace, children's playroom

Victorious brings a party vibe to the yacht show. With a beach club on board, a wine cellar, a cigar clubroom , multiple bars, and a lounge with a piano, the vessel is made for entertaining. Plus, there's a playroom and movie theater to entertain the kids.

For tamer charter clients, Victorious has a suite of wellness features such as a gym, massage room, beauty salon and hammam, or Turkish bath — perhaps a custom request of her owner, Turkish businessman Vural Ak.

She also boasts a treasure trove of water toys, including Jet Skis, jetsurfs, inflatable kayaks, and scuba equipment.

Casino Royale: 72 meters

Price: TBD Special Features: Infinity pool, helipad, private jacuzzi

Purchased and refitted by car dealer magnate John Staluppi last year, Casino Royale is the latest of his James Bond-inspired yachts (he's also owned an Octopussy and a Skyfall, among others).

Casino Royale has a helipad that turns into a dancefloor, an infinity pool, and a wellness center with a gym and sauna. The owner's cabin has its own deck, which features a private bar and jacuzzi.

Related stories

However, the boat's price isn't listed, and while she's not necessarily officially for sale, that might change depending on who's prepared to buy, Mr. Bond.

Talisman C: 70.6 meters

Price: $60 million (or from $567,000 a week to charter) Special features: Massage and beauty room, private library

Likely the largest yacht for sale (not just charter) at the show, the Talisman C is a 2011 six-bedroom boat. The owner's cabin comes with an en suite bathroom, dressing room, private library, and crystal chandeliers.

Amenities include a gym, a beauty room, oversized jacuzzi, and a fully equipped bar. Her crew of 19 includes a trained masseuse, and the toy room comes equipped with a wakeboard, eFoil , and WaveRunners.

Joy: 70 meters

Price: From $650,000 a week Special features: Disco club, basketball court, onboard fitness instructor

Superyacht Joy testifies to the fact that owners want as many on-board experiences as they can get.

There's an expansive suite of fitness features, including a basketball court (don't shoot that hoop too hard!), a personal trainer on staff, boxing equipment, and a handful of machines. For post-workout winddowns, there's a spa with a steam room and onboard masseuse. And for entertainment, there's both an outdoor and indoor cinema, and a disco club.

Triumph: 65.4 meters

Price: From $707,600 a week in the summer and $650,000 a week in the winter Special features: Sauna, helipad, banana boat

This 2021 superyacht is named after Triumph motorcycles — a reported favorite of her rumored owner, British businessman Chris Dawson — and even has one on display as an art piece in the upper deck's lounge. The primary suite is 1,400 square feet and has its own study , and there's a sauna, an indoor-outdoor gym, a helipad, and a massage room spread among her six decks.

She boasts an "armada of water toys," including two kinds of Jet Skis, electric water bikes, and a banana boat.

Seanna: 64.5 meters

Price: $54,000,000 (or from $462,000 a week to charter) Special features: marble foyer, movie room, sundeck pool

The recently refurbished Seanna is available for sale and charter.

Her indoor-outdoor gym is on sea level so that passengers can take a dip after a session with the onboard personal trainer. There's also a sundeck pool, a helipad, a two-room massage facility, and, for the more cerebral guests, a library with an electric fireplace.

There are a number of toys on board, including a popular water trampoline and two WaveRunners.

Come Together: 60 meters

Price: $65,000,000 Special Features: DJ and videographer on board, ice bath, sauna

Next-to-new yacht Come Together is looking for a new owner after doing charters during the 2023 season.

The Beatles' influence is evident beyond the yacht's name, with guitars dotting the sky lounge and a crewmember who doubles as a DJ. There's also an outdoor cinema and bar for entertainment and an ice bath and sauna for the day after the party. The owner's suite has a private study and lounge, and each guest cabin has its own ensuite.

The sale includes a number of toys, like Jet Skis, kayaks, and Seabobs.

There’s an east side-west side divide in metro Detroit’s art world

Where does art thrive in metro Detroit? Hint: Not in boathouses.

Spring art shows are opening across metro Detroit although, by far and away, most are west of Woodward. What about that, east siders? Don't you gotta have art?

In Birmingham on Monday, artist David Bloom had three assistants help him set up Bloom's big mixed-media piece, which can't help but get attention this week. Its brilliant colors overlaid by 48 electric guitar strings, and rigged to an amplifier, are the first thing visitors will see as they enter the annual “Our Town Art Show & Sale" at The Community House, 380 S. Bates. Bloom's hefty 350-pound artwork has a hefty price: $333,000, most of which will go to charity if it sells, the artist says.

Bloom, a Ford analyst by day, is among 120 Michigan artists with works on display. "Our Town" has free admission, 10 a.m.-6 p.m., on Friday and Saturday. Go to www.communityhouse.com to see the art, starting Friday. There were 700 entries from all over Michigan, winnowed to 300 for the show by two jurors, both of them prominent art experts at the Detroit Institute of Arts.

Elsewhere on the west side of metro Detroit, other art shows are opening or planned this spring. And the usual bevy of galleries are busy in Birmingham, Ferndale, Pontiac, and Southfield, as well as south of Eight Mile, in Detroit's Corktown, the city's downtown Woodward Corridor and its creative corridor on Grand River.

But on metro Detroit’s east side? There’s not much art. Most art in southeast Michigan, for more than a century, has been taught, created, bought, sold and displayed on the west side or in downtown Detroit. Is the spare cash on the east side just pouring into Lake St. Clair — into its boats, that is? Cynical west-siders find a grain of truth in that. Another factor may be history. In the early 1900s, despite a proliferation of summer mansions and boathouses in the Grosse Pointes, the east side's founding years made it a cradle of automaking and heavy industry. Artists fled to the west side, so that theory goes.

One east-side refuge for art is the Anton Art Center, 125 Macomb in Mount Clemens, although its inventory is limited. A display of student art from middle schools and high schools art runs through April 13; on April 27, the center opens a display of elementary school student art, said Peggy DiMercurio, interim executive director. Pondering the east-west divide in metro Detroit's art world, DiMercuriou said, "It is hard to explain. Art just doesn't take that high a priority" on the east side.

Still, there are hopeful signs this spring for art-receptive east-siders. A big center for the arts is under construction in Grosse Pointe Park, right at the Detroit border. The Grosse Pointe War Memorial, 32 Lake Shore Drive, has spring art classes planned, such as "Learn to Paint Like Bob Ross," a three-hour blitz on April 19 that aims to teach anyone how to emulate the landscape paintings of the late Floridian who hosted television's "Joy of Painting."

But there are no art supply shops nearby and the east side has no notable galleries, said Donald Cronkhite, a former art teacher at the Grosse Pointe War Memorial. Most of Cronkhite's teaching is at the large and bustling Birmingham-Bloomfield Art Center, where classes and exhibits happen six days a week. His classes in oil painting start on April 2. The center, 1516 S. Cranbrook, is in Birmingham and just a stone's throw from Beverly Hills and Bloomfield Township.

"When I come to the War Memorial for my classes, people are really grateful because the the Grosse Pointes are lacking this," Cronkhite said. His work highlights tensions in nature, often with foreboding cloud formations that would scare any sailor. Cronkhite's art is sold by the Robert Kidd Gallery in Birmingham. His 16-foot cloudscape hangs in the MacKenzie Fine Arts Center at Henry Ford College, 5101 Evergreen Road in Dearborn. Cronkhite's day job is operating his firm, Devonshire Exhibit Design.

Much of metro Detroit's art world is in Oakland County, which doesn't have Lake St. Clair and Mackinac race yachts but does have 1,000 smaller lakes, floating umpteen pontoon boats. It also supports umpteen art galleries, such as Ferndale's busy Lawrence Street Gallery, 22620 Woodward Ave., where a show of paintings by Laura Whitesides Host, of Birmingham, runs through March 29.

"There's just so much art going on in this area, it's incredible," Whitesides Host said, giving a shoutout to the Color/Ink Studio, an visual art and photo gallery along with teaching space at 20919 John R in Hazel Park, where a new show called "Expressionism of Composition" is scheduled to host an artist's talk at 2 p.m. Sunday. Also in Oakland County, "Art Walk at MDC" takes place Friday, 10 a.m.-3 p.m., at the Michigan Design Center, 1700 Stutz Drive in Troy. The theme? To view art not just for itself but for how a piece can create a mood — steamy, cool or calm — inside a home, according to the center's website.

Heading south to Detroit's west side, the art-curious can visit Norwest Gallery of Art, 19556 Grand River, for a display called "Heavy Melanin," through April 28. This Black-owned gallery shows the work of numerous Detroit artists. Not far away, still west of Woodward, Detroit's Corktown area is known for its many studio lofts, whose art ranges from delicately painted dioramas to welded steel towers. Farther west, Dearborn is known for exhibits of Middle Eastern art and tapestries.

Back in Birmingham, where in 1990 there were 25 galleries, today there are just half a dozen, said David Klein, owner of the prestigious Klein Gallery, 163 Townsend.

"Unfortunately, the market has shrunk," in part because many buyers purchase art on the internet, Klein said. Still, the region's west side, plus downtown Detroit, continue to draw collectors to their galleries, for sophisticated pieces at higher price points than those found at summer art fairs.

"The collector base for some reason is on the west side," Klein said, diplomatically skirting a reporter's quip about boaters. He opened his Birmingham gallery in 1990 and then in 2015 opened a Detroit location, 1520 Washington Blvd. Downtown Detroit has a storied history of selling fine art, topped in the 1950s when the J.L. Hudson Co. had the Midwest's finest and largest gallery, Klein said. At his Detroit gallery, a six-week show of art by Franklin native Benjamin Pritchard is scheduled to open on Saturday. Pritchard's work uses abstract forms and bold colors to create "a meditation on Michigan and time," the artist said Wednesday, as he helped to hang his art in the Detroit space.

At The Community House in Birmingham, Bloom's piece, titled VIBE GL, is named after a woman he still loves even after she betrayed him, the artist said. The title's first part "stands for vibration inspired by" a woman whose initials are EGL, he said. The two were a couple before Bloom discovered she was married, he said, adding: "I'll love her forever." The second part of the title, "GL," stands for "grand lasso," referring to the rock song "Lasso" by Phoenix that "was on the radio when I came up with the idea for attaching the magnetic sine wave panels," symbolic vertical components that divide his piece into thirds. Bloom collaborated with Rob Wilson of Wilson Fine Violins in Birmingham over two and a half years to complete the work.

So, what is it about the east side's relative dearth of art? Those willing to drive 20 miles from the fleets of Lake St. Clair to Romeo can find several art spots, including the RJD Gallery, 227 N. Main, which is celebrated on four pages of American Art Collector magazine's March issue. RJD Gallery is showing, through April 4, the oil paintings of Spanish painter Jose Antonio Bernad, which are "beautiful and full of mystery" with "elements of mild danger," says the magazine's review.

Still, the east side is clearly, in sailor's parlance, the pickle boat in this art duel of metro Detroit.

To avoid a pitched battle with people in boat shoes, it must be said: Metro Detroit’s biggest and best art collection is right in the middle of the east and west sides. It's the DIA on Woodward Avenue, recently voted by USA Today’s readers as the nation’s best art museum.

Breaking News

College sports | catherine, princess of wales, announces she has cancer, college sports, subscriber only, college sports | west valley celebrates 33-0 state championship season, sets sights on future , “i was crying tears of joy, and coach yosh shed a couple, too,” scu-bound star elijah mahi said..

SARATOGA – They’ve heard it from classmates, teachers and even counselors.  Sophomore Elijah Mahi says he and the rest of the West Valley College men’s basketball team have  received plaudits from all sides after they powered the program to its first state championship last weekend.

“We’ve been getting incredible praise from everybody around the school for finally winning,” Mahi said Wednesday. “It’s been amazing, even though it’s only been a few days so far. It’s been amazing love from the school and everybody.”

Coach Danny Yoshikawa has also been swamped with congratulatory texts and emails from hundreds, including those from a slew of elated alums and former players, following the team’s 59-51 victory over College of the Sequoias on Sunday in Southern California. 

“There’s been a lot of excitement,” Yoshikawa said. “When I woke up on Monday morning, there were like 500 text messages. It’s been insane.” The final steps of the journey to a 33-0 record and championship glory took the Vikings far from their pristine Saratoga campus. 

West Valley finished its perfect season at Mt. San Antonio College in Walnut, where the Vikings defeated Cerro Coso of Ridgecrest in the quarterfinals on Friday and then got past Yuba College in the semifinals on Saturday. 

In the Saratoga powerhouse’s sixth appearance in the championship game, its third under  Yoshikawa, the Vikings finally staked their claim as the state’s best. Mahi scored a game-high 30 points in his West Valley finale before moving on to Santa Clara University. 

The Toronto native admitted that maintaining the perfect record wasn’t the reason the team felt extra pressure to win.  “Coach Yosh, he’s been at West Valley for years. We were really trying to win for Coach,” Mahi said.

Yoshikawa had recently led the program to the 2022 state title game, a loss to City College of San Francisco.  He brought in key players such as Mahi and Clayton Valley Charter star Jeremiah Dargan that summer to form the nucleus of the championship team. 

“This group of guys has been unreal,” the coach said. “They brought that championship approach every single night.” The team celebrated the championship by spraying water bottles everywhere, to the point that Mahi described the postgame locker room as a “swimming pool.” 

That wasn’t the only reason the West Valley team’s eyes got a little watery. “I was crying tears of joy, and coach Yosh shed a couple, too,” Mahi said. “I think we all did.” Winning it all was cause for celebration, but it was not a stunning outcome for a program with a rich tradition of success dating to the 1980s under former coach Bob Burton.

“That standard was set by coach Burton,” Yoshikawa said. “We’re just trying to carry on that tradition, a standard of excellence.”

Mahi isn’t the only player who will move on this summer. Dargan will leave the Bay Area for the University of Montana, and Yoshikawa says 6-foot-11 big man Shakir Odunewu has offers from four-year colleges and is expected to move on after a great freshman season.

“I’m meeting with my staff in 45 minutes to talk about the rebuild,” Yoshikawa said on Wednesday afternoon.

“We’ve had our few days (to celebrate), but now we’re ready to move on.”

That rebuild won’t start completely from scratch. 

Las Lomas alum Jake Davis, Oakland Tech’s Robel Zemmo and Independence graduate Donavyn Washington are all expected to be back for their sophomore seasons. 

Mahi, who now considers the South Bay his second home, believes Yoshikawa should have no problem getting talented newcomers to join the state champs.  “I’d hope that a lot of young players think about West Valley, now that we’ve done what we’ve done,” Mahi said.

Joy Mahler retiring as president and CEO of Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Sun Coast

Joy Mahler, president and CEO of Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Sun Coast for the past 41 years, announced this month that she plans to retire in summer 2024.

The board of directors and Mahler have agreed that she will play a leadership role through the selection and transition of her successor. Mahler became president and CEO of Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Sun Coast in 1983.

“Being a part of an organization that inspires the potential of youth has been a tremendous career knowing we have made a difference in the life of others, “Mahler said. “Being the one-to-one connector of young people to another generation of caring committed adults will change their trajectory and make a better community and world. It just doesn’t get better than that.”

Under Mahler’s leadership, Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Sun Coast has grown from a small Venice area nonprofit serving 30 children to a 10-county organization serving almost 1,800 youth from Manatee County to Collier, including opening offices in Highlands, Hardee, Desoto and Hendry counties.

Mahler was central in merging six previous Big Brothers Big Sisters agencies and the Family Resource Connection. As an inception member of the Big Brothers Big Sisters Association of Florida in 1995, she led the strategic plan and chaired the BBBSAF from 1997 through 2000. She was elected to Legislative Chair from 2000 through 2007. As Legislative Chair and member of the state board, Mahler collaborated with then-Gov. Jeb Bush on the Mentoring Initiative for Florida.

Board chair Michael A. Nachef has appointed a CEO search committee, chaired by Randall Woods, and they have engaged BoardWalk Consulting, a national executive search firm focused exclusively on nonprofit leadership. The search is expected to be complete by later this summer.

“Our goal is to make this a seamless transition,” Nachef said. “Joy is an exemplary leader. She has assembled an excellent team of capable staff who will accelerate Big Brothers Big Sisters’ success through the search and transition processes. Joy can never be replaced, but the next great leader will continue to build her long-standing success.”
