About DB9
Originally launched in 2010 and comprehensively refitted in 2020, the 171ft (52m) DB9 by Palmer Johnson combines proven naval architecture with contemporary interiors and updated systems. Her 5 staterooms – 3 Double, 2 Twin – sleep 10 guests in comfort, while day charters accommodate 12. A seasoned crew of 11 ensures smooth operations and attentive service.
Refined Comfort
The 2020 refit brought DB9 up to current standards, and it shows in every detail. Stabilizers keep the yacht rock-steady at anchor and underway at 24 knots, making her a particularly good choice for guests who value calm conditions aboard. The Deck Jacuzzi, a deck jacuzzi, a swim platform, and a swimming pool, and thoughtfully designed social spaces give the yacht a resort-quality feel while retaining the intimacy of a private vessel. Updated finishes throughout the interior provide a welcoming retreat after each day’s adventures.
Toys & Tenders
With 12 water toys stowed aboard, DB9 turns every anchorage into an activity hub. The lineup includes two jet skis, two Seabobs F5, water skis, a wakeboard, a kayak, towable inflatables, and surf and kite gear, while the 21ft Castoldi tender provides quick access to hidden beaches and reef snorkeling spots. All equipment is maintained and set up by the crew – guests simply step in and go.
