Here are some photos of the recently launched 209' Royal Denship Yacht. The boat made its way into Chicago in Late August and stayed quite late through the season. You will find that it sharesthe expedition styling of the prior 151' Palmer Johnson "Turmoil". The owner was known to many as an avid boater, supporter of the marine industry, and he was an accomplished sailor and adventurer.
I've only just seen this thread. Having seen Turmoil moored near my home berth a few years ago, I can confirm that she's an impressive vessel indeed. She made anything else in the marina look like toys - and my old 53' timber trawler (first on the left side of the photo) could pass for her tender...
Yes she is a big girl...gosh she is practically 64-meters. I saw her once or twice here when she visited and yes she is big, great design too, timeless.
Didn't even realize she had a name change since the last one. Currently known as "Cupani" and she is for sale.
