The 41.5-metre motor yacht Defiant is newly listed for sale with Chris Callahan of Moran Yacht & Ship.

Constructed of aluminium by USA builder Palmer Johnson in 2012, the PJ135 model's sporty profile was shaped by Nuvolari Lenard, who also designed the interior. She was refitted in 2022 and decoration is by Eroc Küster.

Defiant is asking $10,900,000.

Defiant accommodates up to 12 guests in five cabins, the full-beam master suite having a private balcony. The main saloon is spacious and open, with comfortable seating and a chic formal dining area. There are quarters for a crew of four.

Substantial deck areas are ideal for outdoor relaxing and entertaining at sea. A beam of 8.4 metres allows for a vast sundeck as well as an impressive flybridge, which boasts a Jacuzzi and a number of seating options. On her main deck, an al fresco dining space offers guests a private area perfect for entertaining. 

The Lloyd's classed, 305GT yacht for sale has a cruising speed of 24 knots and a top speed of 28 knots. The range is 700 nautical miles at 24 knots or 1,700 nautical miles at 12 knots, under twin 3,650hp MTU diesels, and she is fitted with zero-speed stabilisers.

Lying in Miami, USA, Defiant is asking $10,900,000.
