Juliet
Length: 143 ft.
Designed by: Ron Holland; Pieter Beeldsnijder interiors

Built over three years for Rockport Shoes owner Bruce Katz, this sailing yacht was heralded as a masterpiece when it was launched in 1993 and quickly became one of the most admired sailing yachts in the world. Fifteen years and thousands of miles later, the ship was brought back into the shipyard last year for a refit and to update its technology. With remodeled furnishings and new radar and navigation systems, Juliet was relaunched this June.
