$1M price drop on 50m Christensen motor yacht Lady Elaine

A $1,000,000 price drop has been announced on the 49.7-metre motor yacht Lady Elaine, listed for sale with Bob Cury of RJC Yachts.

Delivered from Christensen in the USA in 2008, the GRP yacht was refitted in 2018 and completed her 15-year ABS survey in 2023.

The broker pointed out that the yacht was originally commissioned for "American yachting legend John Staluppi". Accommodation is for an owner's party of up to 15 in six cabins, comprising a king-sized master – with extra-large Jacuzzi tub – on the main deck, a full-beam, king-sized VIP cabin, two king-sized doubles and two more doubles with twin bed and additional Pullman berth. "You will not find a more versatile, guest-friendly, stateroom layout on any 50-metre yacht", said the broker. There are quarters for a crew of 10.

Sapele mahogany features throughout the interior. An elevator services all four decks, one of the most popular being the upper deck with its full-beam, voluminous skylounge. Up a level, the sundeck sports a large Jacuzzi, wet bar and ample deck space for relaxing and entertaining on.

The 491GT yacht for sale is powered by twin 1,800hp MTU diesels giving her a top speed of 17.5 knots and cruising speed of 16 knots. Range is 4,300 nautical miles at 11 knots.

Lady Elaine is now asking $26,900,000 and lying in Palm Beach, USA.
