Superyacht Khalilah in Miami

Superyacht Kalilah in Miami

Although she took no part in the Miami Yacht and Brokerage Show 2015, superyacht Khalilah stole the show nevertheless. She was docked within viewing range of the show, and created quite a stir. Delivered by Palmer Johnson a few weeks ago, Khalilah has a wavepiercing displacement trimaran hull, which is designed to reach 32 knots, using MTU 2000 series engines, burning 50% less fuel. She is constructed out of carbon fiber, and her hull and superstructure were built by Brødrene Aa in Norway. She was then shipped to the Midwest where she was completed at PJ's Sturgeon Bay shipyard.
