• testimonials

DB9’s airy, open plan minimalist interior was refitted in 2020, with polished wood panelling, metal accents and tonal palettes offering a contemporary, tranquil and sophisticated space to relax. Luxury accommodation for 10 guests includes a full beam master suite, two double and two twin staterooms.

Further standout features include an open air sun deck cinema, a gym, three pool areas – an 8 metre pool and two jacuzzis – and a huge collection of the latest water toys.

With a top speed of 32.4 knots and a cruising speed of 22 knots, you can be sure to enjoy the ride of your life.

The Captain

Describing himself as “Argentinian by birth, Italian by blood and Swedish by choice”, Captain Flavio Pescuma has always had a love of travelling the globe, and spent his childhood years sailing, skiing, riding, flying, and playing rugby and polo.

His overwhelming passion for the water saw him launch his own small yacht charter business in 2008, and since then he has dedicated his life to providing guests and owners alike unforgettable experiences on board.

A keen sports enthusiast, his outgoing, friendly nature and utterly professional attitude mean he is perfectly placed to provide guests young and mature with a fantastically memorable trip.

The Experience

DB9’s low-slung sporty appearance, elegant modern lines, champagne exterior and discreetly luxe finish make her the obvious choice for discerning, style-obsessed guests for whom surroundings are as important as far as the eye can see vistas.

Her five spacious and welcoming staterooms have been imagined as spacious and welcoming personal sanctuaries. Accessed by a private staircase, the impressive master suite is finished in calming cream hues and natural light wood panelling and offers walk-in wardrobes and an oversized en suite bathroom. The remaining four staterooms are set around a central foyer on the lower deck and all enjoy private en suite facilities.

The recent Nuvolari Lenard refit perfectly complements her distinctly futuristic character; a full beam salon on the main deck boasts a chic lounge area and dedicated dining zone with seating for 10, dominated by a stunning deco-inspired light feature.

However, it’s DB9’s highly styled exterior decks which offer a sophisticated yet intimate area in which to get the most out of your stay on board. The aft deck features direct access to the ocean and an impressive array of toys while an infinity edged jacuzzi, eight metre pool and al fresco lounge and dining zone served by a full wet bar will provide endless hours of joy.

The Cuisine

A true Parisian and exceptional chef, Ketty Zeitoun has an unrivalled talent for creating memorable and mouth-watering menus which incorporate her flair for an exotic array of international cuisines.

Having trained at Le Notre school in Paris as well as completing her thesis in Bangkok, Chef Zeitoun rose through the ranks to become Chef de Partie at the two Michelin star Les Elysees in the French capital. When adventure came calling in 2006, she moved to Venezuela where she started her own company catering for large events and weddings for up to 800 guests.

Joining the superyacht world in 2020, Ketty’s innovative recipes are showcased in her menu planning, where one can travel through the world’s most varied culinary regions in one day. Start the day with French toast, bacon, cinnamon sugar and grilled banana before tucking into a lunch of lightly seared black sesame[1]crusted tuna loin, pickled ginger and wasabi.

Dinner will transport you to la dolce vita via Ketty’s risotto Milanese with saffron, white truffles and parmesan shavings before a coup de foudre as you savour her take on a French classic, blueberry and vanilla pod crème brûlée.

DB9 Enquiry

“There’s the pleasure derived from beauty - beautiful things alone can save us. There’s no explicit functionality which can show the way to project design related decision making. What moves everything is passion for beauty. This is the sexiest thing about the boat taken as an object which really makes it very different to houses, paintings, or other forms of art. The chance to put your boat object you have fallen in love with on show for all to see. It’s a near perverted aspect of wanting to share your very own passion with someone else. Boats can be shown off anywhere. And moreover you sleep inside her, you cruise in beautiful places with her and having style you probably enjoy better interiors than you have at home. " - Dan Lenard from Nuvolari – Lenard, a large, multi-award winning Italian yacht design firm.

Boat of the Week: How an Iconic 171-Foot Superyacht Got New Life After Being Unused for a Decade

Commissioned by a russian oligarch, then acquired by a turkish owner, "db9" sat idle for years. then its us owner brought it back to life., howard walker, howard walker's most recent stories.

It’s just a tad more powerful than the Aston Martin it’s named after. With a staggering 9,200-turbocharged horsepower, this 171-foot speed machine can reach a highly impressive 37 mph, two or three times faster than other yachts its size. Breakfast in Monaco, lunch in Porto Cervo and back in time for dinner? No problem.

Launched back in 2010 and christened DB9 after the classic V12-engined British sports car, it was the first of Palmer Johnson ’s iconic PJ 170 Sport Yacht range, and the only one built in England.

Eleven years later, DB9 still spins heads from St. Tropez to St. Barts—two of its favorite ports of call—like few other superyachts. Those razor-edged lines are from designers Carlo Nuvolari and Dan Lenard of Venice-based Nuvolari Lenard.

Today, DB9 is the pride and joy of American businessman and boat lover, John Rosatti. Maybe you’ve bought a new car from one of his many Plaza Auto Mall dealerships. Or fine-dined at his Vic & Angelo’s Italian eatery in South Florida. Or grabbed a burger at one of his successful BurgerFi joints.

Rosatti bought DB9 back in 2019 a year after selling his much-loved 214-foot Codecasa superyacht Double Down . Before that, he owned the 160-foot Christensen Nice ’n Easy and, before that, the 127-foot Crescent Take it Easy.

At the time, the yacht was languishing unloved in an Istanbul shipyard, a for-sale sign in its window and an €18 million asking price. Rosatti’s car dealer instincts weighed the pros and cons. The cons included pricy overhauls for the yacht’s entire mechanical and electronic systems, plus a re-spray of the hull. The single, but eventually deciding, pro: an iconic boat at a great price.

Rosatti is currently off-the-grid aboard DB9 , cruising around the Italian island of Sardinia, so wasn’t available for comment. But Peter Thompson, managing director of Monaco-based Yachting Partners International, and Rosatti’s longtime friend and boat-buying advisor, gave Robb Report a history of the boat.

“ DB9 had pretty much been in mothballs her entire life,” he says. “Shortly after launch, she was hauled out of the water and parked on the hard. When we tracked her down in Istanbul years later, she had less than 1,200 hours on the engines.”

The Palmer Johnson was originally built for the Russian oligarch Sergei Pugachev. He was the founder of the MezhPrombank, and a close friend and advisor to Russian President Vladimir Putin. According to published reports, in 2011, a year after he took delivery of DB9 , Pugachev was accused by the Russian government of running off with a $1 billion bailout loan given to his bank. His considerable assets were reportedly seized, including DB9 , and he fled to England. He’s now living in exile in the South of France.

After sitting idle for years, the yacht went through a refit in 2019.  Courtesy YPI

“A Turkish buyer bought the boat out of receivership in 2016, managed to get it to Istanbul and renamed it Aura ,” says Thompson. “But it just sat there and, as we know, boats like these hate not being used. When we found her in 2019, she needed work.”

After the purchase, the boat went into the Dunya Yachts yard in Istanbul for a comprehensive refit. All the systems were upgraded, those mighty MAN diesels were overhauled and the yacht was given a complete re-paint in that polarizing Champagne-with-red-bootstripe color scheme. And the original DB9 name was resurrected.

“Today she’s in absolutely pristine condition,” says Thompson. ”Inside and out, she looks brand new and still turns heads like no other boat I know.”

The interior also received a facelift.  Courtesy YPI

Some of DB9’s coolest features include not one, but three pools, including a huge 26-foot saltwater pool on the foredeck that, when empty, holds the yacht’s RIB tender. Emptying it takes less than 10 minutes. For alfresco entertainment, the yacht comes with a state-of-the-art outdoor cinema on the sundeck. Belowdecks are five spacious staterooms for up to 12 guests, including a full-beam master.

According to Thompson, the “owner recently decided that he wants to replace DB9 with a larger yacht more suited to world-girding.” So, when the Rosattis are done cruising the Med this fall, it’ll be displayed at the Monaco Yacht Show in September, with a €25 million, or $29.4 million, asking price.

Maybe Rosatti should consider throwing in a champagne-colored Aston Martin DB9 to sweeten the deal.
