More good news from Michael Mahan at Worth Avenue Yachts as he tells me he acted for the buyer and seller today of the 54.9 motor yacht Harbour Island, a joint listing with Ocean Independence.
The first hull of the Newcastle 5500 series from Newcastle Shipyards, she was launched in August 2011. Exterior styling is by Murray & Associates and interior design by Claudette Bonville.
ABS classed and MCA compliant, Harbour Island is a six-stateroom yacht featuring two king master suites, one on the main deck and one on the skylounge deck forward plus a VIP king guest stateroom below. Additional amenities include an infinity pool on the split-level sundeck, a raised veranda on the main aft deck and an expansive built-in seating area aft of the alfresco dining area on the skylounge aft deck.
A finalist at the 2012 World Superyacht Awards, Harbour Island was asking $49.5 million.
