Next-Level Cruising: 2022 Palm Beach PB70 For Sale

• By Donny Gilbert
• September 4, 2024

Looking for a stout, finely finished, high-performing Downeast-style yacht with a thoroughly modern build? Falcon , a 2022 Palm Beach PB70, has just entered the market with Grand Banks at $4.999 million.

“Her lines are much sleeker than those of most other boats in her class, many of which tend to skew more classical and, frankly, more boxy,” Yachting previously reported . “This boat is sexy, with a raked windshield and gently curving sheer line that reaches aft toward a generous tumblehome.”

Construction is vacuum-infused E-glass with carbon fiber for structural areas. The deck and superstructure are built with infused carbon fiber for strength without added weight. Coring is Airex and Corecell foam.

Boarding Falcon via the teak swim platform, the cockpit is accessed through a transom door to starboard. The first things I noticed were the teak sole, fixed Bimini and al fresco space to entertain family and friends. Guests can relax on an L-shaped settee with a custom hi-low teak table or the aft-facing L-shaped settee with table to starboard. Grill a few burgers for lunch on the Kenyon electric BBQ before grabbing a few water toys out of the garage. Falcon ’s tender garage is currently used for stowage with the tender stowed on the hardtop. Rinse off using the cockpit shower with fresh hot/cold water and dry off in the sun on a couple sun pads or an inset settee for two on the foredeck. Some other amenities include:

• Remote docking station
• Underwater lights
• Cockpit courtesy lights
• Cockpit cover
• Cockpit wet bar with Silestone “Eternal Calacatta Gold” countertop with AC/DC refrigerator, freezer, sink, storage
• Designated glassware cabinet
• Teak cockpit sole with day hatch to the tender garage
• Garage w/built-in with electric door, ladder, custom paddle board holders, custom bike holders, custom storage box for snorkeling gear & Seabob
• Opacmare Transformer hydraulic swim platform (900-pound capacity) with stainless-steel staple rail and removable tender chocks

A set of double teak doors from the cockpit lead to the salon. A Burmese teak interior is illuminated by natural light flowing in through the windows that surround the salon. Relax on the portside sofa with a hi-low teak table that converts to an additional berth, settee with table to starboard, barrel chair and custom ottoman with flip fabric/teak lid. Solid teak cabinetry and lockers provide stowage space for salon accessories. Catch a game on the retractable flat- screen TV or nose into a book using the custom reading lights. 

Forward, and open to the salon, is Falcon’ s helm station. The helm has a custom Sisal “Samarra” carpeted sole on the raised portion of the helm, matching the salon, a teak sole through the helm companionway and a teak helm console. Optional. leather Stidd helm chairs were added along with a custom portside companion helm seat with a fixed armrest. Falcon has the following electronics and navigation tech:

• 2/Garmin 8617 displays
• Volvo autopilot
• GMR Fantom 24″ dome radar
• Garmin 315 VHF
• Engine room camera
• Cockpit aft-facing camera, starboard bulkhead
• Garmin WiFi
• WiFi booster, WL-510 with Asus RT-AC1200G+ router
• Volvo 7″ display with new sonar function
• Starlink SAT communication system

Falcon has a one-of-a-kind tender, a Palm Beach PB14, that is mounted on the hardtop and can be easily launched using a custom transformer davit with powered hoist and rotatable base built into the mast. The carbon fiber tender with a Honda 30 hp outboard includes one Garmin GPSMAP 753XSV, Fusion Marine black box MS-BB1100 entertainment system with bluetooth wired remote and NMEA 2000, Fusion 4″ speakers and custom upholstery.

Down a few steps and forward the helm station is Falcon ’s galley. It has a teak sole and teak cabinetry, large countertops and a stainless-steel sink. appliances include a Miele KM6320 3-burner induction cooktop, Miele DA 1260 with optional odor-free charcoal filter, DKF 18-900 range hood and Miele H6200 BM speed microwave/convection oven. Other galley amenities include the following:

• Sub-Zero ID-24R refrigerator/freezer
• Water purification system
• Hideaway pull-out disposal bin at inboard end of galley
• Overhead locker above cooktop on forward bulkhead of galley
• Plate rack with cup holders
• Drawer stowage

After a long day on the water, retire to one of three staterooms. The amidships master stateroom has a king-sized island berth with under-berth stowage and an en suite head. The sole is covered with a custom Sisal “Samarra” carpet with acoustic underlay and the teak cabinetry has a satin finish. Owners will find plenty of stowage for their personal belongings in a hanging locker with mirror, stowage lockers with positive locking hardware as well as a Diplomat hotel P25EN safe. Catch the rest of the game on the flatscreen smart TV or turn on one of the six custom reading lights to finish the chapter before falling off to sleep. The VIP has a queen-sized island berth with en suite head. Personal belongings can be stowed in a dresser and stowage lockers with teak cabinetry. The guest stateroom has two single berths with teak cabinetry and custom portholes. Stowage lockers, dressing cabinet with mirror and custom teak shelves provide stowage for personal belongings. The guest stateroom could also be used as crew quarters. 

Where is Falcon located? The yacht is currently lying in Stuart, Florida.

Joy: On board Feadship’s 70m superyacht with a basketball court and disco

The owner's first yacht,   Joy is a 70 metre Feadship , but this is one owner for whom size is not everything.

The bigger the saloon, the less it gets used. Despite this being one of the few generally accepted rules of superyacht design, boats are still pouring out of sheds with wide-open acreage on their main and upper decks. Designers earn their money making these spaces feel as comfortable as possible, but there’s often no hiding the fact that they’re just really big rooms. And who feels comfortable putting their feet up in one of those?

Clearly not the owner of 70 metre Joy , who has pulled off something of a magic trick with this, his very first yacht: he’s made it feel cosy. “I did not want some floating villa with vast internal spaces compromising the relationship with the ocean and the interior,” he says.

“We did not need to be compromised by some preset platform or convention. We designed Joy with our own lifestyle and vision in mind.” To achieve this, volume has been turned right down. Joy carries fewer gross tonnes (around 1,100) than any other 70 metre motor yacht on the water.

Even Heesen ’s low-slung and sporty Galactica Super Nova is packing a bigger interior. Benetti ’s stacked 70 metre Freedom , by comparison, has almost twice the internal volume, at 1,975GT. “I wanted a yacht that was progressive and not afraid of challenging convention,” Joy ’s owner adds, consigning the superyachting mantra of “more and bigger” to the dustbin.

Actually, that’s not quite true of the whole boat. By keeping the interior human-sized, the decks have been exaggerated. You can comfortably walk two abreast down Joy ’s ample side decks, protected the entire time by the high bulwarks and deck overhang above.

The owner’s deck, meanwhile, should really be known as the “promenade deck”. You can stroll hand in hand around the entire superstructure, all on one level. You could even jog in tandem. Feadship claims there’s more teak on Joy than any other comparable superyacht. I can believe it — it just keeps going, ending up on the owner’s deck in a basketball and badminton court all the way forward.

Joy wasn’t always going to have such expansive outside spaces; she grew from 50 metres to 63 metres and finally to 70 metres. Simon Rowell, creative director at Bannenberg & Rowell , which designed her exterior and layout, says: “Once Joy was mapped out and engineered [at 63 metres], the owner asked us to study a longer prow, in essence for two simple reasons: he felt that a longer external foredeck visually gave more breathing space between hull and superstructure and leant the yacht an elegant stance on the water; secondly, he would benefit from a very large terrace forward of his suite, effectively extending his family deck significantly.”

It was a savvy move from the young owner, whose defiance of yachting norms extended to his choice of collaborators in the creation of his boat. Joy is the first exterior design by Bannenberg & Rowell to hit the water, while for the interior he turned to London-based Studio Indigo , which had designed boats before but never on the scale of Joy .

The company is led by Mike Fisher, who said he was asked to create an interior that was “unique and non-boat like”. He continues: “The client and his wife are young, energetic and visionary. They look to the future and rarely to the past. They hoped the design of Joy would create a real sense of contentment and comfort, without making the boat feel like every other yacht and avoiding the clichéd details that would date in years to come.”

The approach has led to an interior that’s not easy to pigeonhole, but which Fisher describes as “vintage, without being overtly fashionable”.  Equally outside-the-box is Joy ’s superstructure, which looks as if it was carved.

“We wanted to connect with the surroundings, to garner the best views,” says James Carley, director of exterior design at Bannenberg & Rowell. “Chamfering the edges [of the superstructure overhangs] effectively raises the external deckheads, both around the side walkways and the overhanging aft decks.” This drive to provide a generous outlook from every internal space led to some “ongoing but friendly” battles with Feadship, says Rowell, who with Carley pushed to make sills and coamings on Joy as minimal as possible, to allow the maximum possible glazing.

The best example of this is to the rear of the bridge deck, where the entire space has been given over to Joy’s glass-walled superyacht gym , kitted out with the latest Technogym equipment. It’s a hybrid space — both inside and outside — and was an important requirement for the owner, who says enthusiastically: “The gym on the bridge deck may be the best place to work out anywhere in the world!”

Carley adds that he would have removed the entire structure from this area if he could, but the exhaust casings were non-negotiable. Still, Joy ’s gym is an incredibly bright and inviting space, one that is actually quite hard to walk through without an urge to better yourself — a benefit of placing a wellness area like this in an unavoidable part of a yacht, rather than squirrelling it away on a lower deck.

Double stairs forward sweep up to the superyacht sundeck and its pool, which together create an exclusive perch at the top of Joy . The gym’s blurring of what is exterior and interior extends across the main and upper decks, which both have winter gardens that can be closed off with glass to take them from outside to inside with a nod to a deckhand.

The challenge for Studio Indigo was managing this interface, to make sure there’s no jarring as you enter the yacht proper. “We used a great many finishes and textiles as well as materials and styling of furniture to make the exteriors feel like an extension of the interior spaces,” says Fisher. “Moreover, each living area has windows looking out on to the wide walkways — making the rooms feel much larger than they are.”

Then there are the carpets in Joy ’s upper and main saloons that demand you walk barefoot, drawing you into the comfortable interior. The main saloon’s is silk and nettle and made by German firm Jan Kath, represented by Front Rugs. The seating in here is low and comfortable, while an Irish whiskey bar to starboard, made in the UK by Silverlining, keeps things social.

The only other saloon on Joy , on the upper deck, couldn’t feel more different. This is very deliberately a family space. “There were certain vital principles that we were determined to achieve to make the yacht work and flow with different groups and situations,” the owner says. “There are elements such as the owner’s deck, which is almost a penthouse so I can be alone with my family.” Joy ’s layout reflects this, with a master suite forward and a pair of double cabins amidships for the two children the only accommodation on this level.

Studio Indigo used more than 250 finishes throughout Joy — “too many to mention!” jokes Fisher. “We gave each area its own unique and highly individual character by using diverse materials and patterns. We didn’t just want to give each cabin a theme, we wanted to make each one an experience — a memorable space full of colour and texture.”

The design for each room started with a single item, playing on the owner’s love of tactile materials. A Yastik cushion, for instance, was the initial building block for the owner’s and VIP cabins on Joy . Hand-woven ikat fabric from Indonesia and Suzani textiles from central Asia informed other areas. “These materials tell their own stories using colour, weave and pattern. The story of these cushions seemed to fit perfectly with the client’s vision and the feel of what we were all aiming to achieve,” adds the designer.

His proudest achievement on Joy is the central cantilevered superyacht staircase , which winds up from the lower deck around a lift shaft. You ascend on hand-woven carpeted pads past windows, beautiful églomisé panels made by DKT Artworks and oak marquetry.

You emerge at Joy ’s bridge deck, which, apart from the gym, has an office that is treated to its own fold-down superyacht balcony , mirroring one on the starboard side. No hydraulics or electrics are used — “they have been developed to be operated manually, by simply pushing down”, says Carley.

Electrics and hydraulics are required, however, for the other openings on board Joy . Two sections of bulwark fold down pantograph-style, forward on the main deck, to release the tenders stored there. And the large transom door levers up, to create a shade for the bathing platform and to open up the superyacht beach club .

The other access to the beach club is via a set of bomb bay doors on the main deck. They reveal a cinema space, with beanbag chairs and a huge video wall made by VBH, which can be used to screen movies or play computer games. And in the teak floor — the owner’s star sign displayed in LEDs.

It’s Rowell’s favourite part of Joy . “The combination of bomb bay doors and pivoting transom door is very successful. The visual connection between decks, particularly when one considers having parents on the main deck and kids on the swim platform, really proved worthwhile. The geometry and engineering of these features is not easy, but the relatively compact lower deck beach club ‘den’ is immeasurably improved by this interaction.”

Feadship has kept everything squeak-free, as you’d expect. It’s a testament to Joy ’s build quality, too, that while underway, even with all that glass and those huge overhangs — features that terrify engineers tasked with keeping a yacht quiet — there is not a rattle to be heard.

In fact, the ship is almost eerily silent when running, even when weaving figures of eight in two metre seas for the photographer in the helicopter hovering above. “She is my first Feadship,” says the captain after the shoot. “I have been impressed with the overall build standard and attention to detail. Joy is very stable and quiet as a mouse underway.”

To stay out of the images, everyone on board is asked to hide away in Joy ’s main saloon. I sink into the sofa scattered with Holland & Sherry cushions to wait it out, as the skipper swings us left and right. It’s only a few seconds before I’m forcing down the urge to put my feet up on the custom coffee table. But the fact that I want to — feel irresistibly compelled to — tells you everything you need to know about Joy .

Joy is managed by Burgess with charters starting from €700,000 per week .
