Atlantic Yacht & Ship to Exhibit Trinity Watercolours Motor Yacht

Tuesday, October 25th, 2011

The 2011 Fort Lauderdale Boat Show is just two days away, and Atlantic Yacht & Ship has been working tirelessly to prepare. This week, we wanted to talk about one of the boats we’re featuring in the show, an impressive motor yacht with all the bells and whistles one could ask for.

Watercolours is a 115-foot Trinity motor yacht that was built in 1990. In the summer of 2007, she received an extensive refit that included a complete remodeling of the main deck and a transformation of the previous formal dining room salon into a chic country kitchen with panoramic views forward and dining for up to 10 guests. The renovated kitchen was built with Sepeli Mahogany and teak, along with luxurious silks and leathers. Invite friends aboard for a relaxing evening in her gorgeous outdoor entertaining areas, or host a dinner party in the over-sized al fresco dining area on the aft deck, complete with a wet bar, refrigerator, icemaker, 46-inch plasma television, swim platform and sundeck. The sundeck also features a Jenn-Aire grill, barstool seating, sun pads and an on-deck Jacuzzi and helm station.

Watercolours can accommodate up to 8 guests in the double staterooms, and she comes equipped with an unbeatable selection of water toys, including 2 tenders and a jet ski. This beauty is based in the Bahamas in the summer and the Caribbean during the winter months. Come and see this opulent vessel at the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show at the South Side Hall Of Fame!

World’s Largest Single-Masted Yacht Spotted in Caribbean

Monday, July 4th, 2011

The Mirabella V was spotted off the coast of St. George in the Caribbean earlier this week. The town was abuzz as locals and tourists gathered around to catch a glimpse of the world’s largest single-masted yacht, measuring 247 feet long. The mast of the ship reaches 292 feet above water level. Mirabella V was launched in November 2003 and sold for $50 million. She was part of a fleet owned by the CEO of Avis car rental company, Joe Vittoria. Mirabella V was formerly used as a luxury yacht charter that cost $250,000 per week. Today she is privately owned and operated.

The ship features a 20-person Jacuzzi, spacious dining room, surround sound theater, gym with sauna and TVs, and a garage holding jet skis, ski boats, kayaks and other sea toys. The six guest cabins can hold up to twelve people, plus a full width master suite on the main deck.

The Mirabella V has spent the last eight months cruising Antigua and St. Martin in the Caribbean with the owners and approximately 15 crew members on board. They are planning on staying in St. George for the next week or two.

Fort Lauderdale’s Bahia Mar Renovation Gets First Approval

Monday, May 30th, 2011

Bahia MarThe proposed $250 million renovation of Bahia Mar in Fort Lauderdale received the first of two approvals in mid-May by city commissioners. Plans for the renovation include an updated Bahia Mar hotel, a new five-star Waldorf Astoria, a waterfront park and a permanent home for the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show. LXR Resorts, owned by the Blackstone Group, has been negotiating with the city for five years to renovate Bahia Mar. The project will not be funded by tax-payer dollars, as developers would pay for a beach community center, a police command center and a trolley stop as well as facilities that would improve the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show.

The original proposal, which was twice the size, was turned down last year by community members who felt the development would overwhelm the beach and destroy views of area homeowners. However, new toned-down proposal seems to be largely supported by beach activists and community members. “This is the largest piece of waterfront property owned by the city and any plans for it should take advantage of its size and prominence to make this a great waterfront city,” said Idlewyld neighborhood activist Anne Hilmer.

After the rezoning is approved, developers will have to discuss the length of the lease, as well as negotiate a deal with the boat show to serve as its permanent home. The deals are expected to be completed by late summer, as developers hope to begin construction in two years and finish the renovation by 2016.

The Bahia Mar renovation will pump millions of dollars into the Fort Lauderdale boating industry through increased tourism and an improved International Boat Show. Located in the heart of Fort Lauderdale is Atlantic Yacht and Ship, an international yacht brokerage offering new and used boats for sale. With over 50 years of experience, the professional trained staff is fully equipped to answer any questions and provide assistance in helping you select the right yacht fit to your specifications.
