On board the 52m Palmer Johnson newly listed for €26.9M

16 August 2024 • Written by Katia Damborsky

The 52.4-metre Palmer Johnson motor yacht Sanam has newly joined the market with Mathieu Bardon of Worth Avenue Yachts and will make an appearance at the Monaco Yacht Show 2024. 

The 2016-delivered yacht was the final unit built at Palmer Johnson's US facility, making her a unique addition to the market that might be of particular interest for US-based yacht buyers looking for something spacious yet speedy, as Sanam can reach a top speed of 31 knots.

Sanam is asking €26,900,000 with VAT paid.

The yacht has the same striking Nuvolari Lenard lines and low-profile design as her sisters DB9 and Bliss and the 495GT sports yacht has only ever been used privately since commission. Remarkably, she still retains some of the same key crew members. She was most recently refitted and upgraded earlier in 2024, leaving her in excellent condition for a new owner.

A particular highlight is Sanam's accommodation configuration, which is a flexible arrangement for up to 15 guests across six cabins, putting her well ahead of other similarly-sized yachts. 

The yacht has a light-drenched interior with contemporary touches throughout

Entertainment-optimised features include a pair of pools, one of which sits on the foredeck and spans 24 square metres. The second is located on the forward portion of the sundeck, adjacent to a shaded seating area with drop-down cinema screen, gym equipment and sunpad spread.

Other al fresco areas include the main deck aft, which is set up for coffees or cocktails and is in close proximity to the swimming platform, which benefits from an Opacmare swimming ladder and fixed garage that offers plenty of space for toys and accessories.

Sanam's interiors are by British design studio Todhunter Earle. Focusing on classic lines, neutral tones and natural light where possible, the interior styling is tasteful, but easy to change under new ownership. 

Powered by twin 4613hp MTU engines, Sanam has a top speed of 31 knots and cruises comfortably at 17.5 knots.
