Palmer Johnson Launches Seventh PJ150

Given some of the wild paint colors that Palmer Johnson Super Sport Yacht Series superyachts have borne in recent years, the cream-tone hull of hull number seven of the 150-foot series seems pretty tame.

Then again, she does have an anthracite-painted radar arch and coordinating dome.

Regardless, she’ll turn heads like other Palmer Johnson deliveries when she reaches the Med next month. She’ll join some 120-, 135-, and 150-footers from the series around those cruising grounds.

If the owner welcomes his fellow Palmer Johnson owners aboard, they’ll note his personal imprint on the interior. Instead of the dark woods some of them selected, he chose bleached teak for both soles and bulkheads. The distinct zebra-skin pattern of Zebrano wood is also aboard, though in an interesting twist, it’s dyed navy blue. The brown, blue, and cream color pattern is carried through the fabrics and marbles, too, offset by carved pine and metallic accents (made of composite).
