Palmer Johnson 123' - SpyShot!

Hi All!

Mike Kelsey from Palmer Johnson has bestowed us the honor of allowing YachtForums to publish the first-ever pictures of the new 123'. We're proud to share spyshots of this fantastic new yacht with our viewers.

The yard is still in the process of finishing all the details, including painting the super structure, adding windscreens and all the other bells & whistles, but the pictures seen below give you a preliminary example of what the finished yacht will look like. Among many other unique attributes, the new 123' will feature a white pearlescent paint finish that changes color, depending on the viewing angle.

Palmer Johnson's world-class craftsmenship and legendary yacht building experience have been complimented by the design team of Nuvolari & Lenard, who's other notable architecture includes Oceanco's "Y701" Expedition and the new Carver Marquis series.

Palmer Johnson's "Ocean Drive" was met with great enthusiasm by the media and paved the way for a bold new direction in the history of the company. A BIG congratulations to Mike Kelsey and the entire Palmer Johnson crew.
