Superyacht brand Palmer Johnson has now released a preview of the latest addition to their successful semi-custom sportyacht line. With the flagship PJ 170 set to be released in the spring of 2010, Palmer Johnson is again setting the standard with this finely detailed designed interpretation of the ultimate modern Superyacht.

The 170’s design demands attention for combining strong, substantial lines without losing the sleek sophistication of its smaller predecessors. Emphasizing huge open spaces, the owner’s experience becomes even more luxurious and comfortable. The foredeck swimming pool and lounge area is one example of the sheer indulgence this model has to offer discerning owners seeking the definitive Super Sport Yacht.

An advanced and innovative concept of modular construction ensures the 170’s creation is one of unrivalled accuracy and efficiency. This new flagship model will introduce breakthrough engineering elements and design features unique to the brand. The key components of Palmer Johnson’s build process allow the various aspects of the yacht to be built concurrently instead of the traditional time consuming linear approach. Before construction takes place, the 170 is initially built digitally in a three dimensional model.

The PJ Sportyacht era began in 2004 with the first 120ft Cover Drive vessel winning instant acclaim for its distinctive style, innovation and build quality. The “family” has continued to grow with the successive 135 and 150 models. Now, the 170’ will exemplify Palmer Johnson’s advanced engineering expertise and progression in design excellence. The dedication to building the world’s most prestigious Sportyachts continues.
