Australian Superyachts recently announced that the 32.13 metre superyacht Patriot has been handed over to her new owners. After leaving Sydney Superyacht Marina on 4th November, she made her way to the Gold Coast where she will soon commence charter operations in Queensland.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/157040/image/large-a443a6039e3890007ab22764aaa4cf75.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/157040">Built in 2004 by Lloyds Ships and designed by Don Shead Yacht Design, the all aluminium yacht was used privately by her owner for a decade before she was listed for sale at the end of 2013.
