#81: HAIDA G—218’0″
Even though we mention it frequently when it comes to this yacht, it bears repeating that she’s still powered by her original engines. A fantail beauty, Haida G is nearing her 80th birthday and looks terrific, thanks to a new paint job and other sprucing up at Amico & Co. in Italy last year. Period furnishings and decor elements are used throughout, and whether guests are dining on the aft deck or enjoying the view from the upper-deck master suite, they can feel as if they’ve stepped back in time.
Y: 1929/1999; B: Friedrich Krupp Germania Werft, Germany; N: Cox & Stevens; H: steel; E: 2/750-hp Krupps
