Besides the fact that the styling of this new
yacht pays homage to J.P. Morgan's famous
Corsair IV (1930), she's attracting a lot of
attention because she's the latest big boat to
emerge from China, a country where luxury yacht
building is increasing exponentially across all
size ranges.
Nero was built specifically for
charter, and she features accommodations for 12
passengers. No more "suite," the owner's
cabin is actually a duplex -- containing a
bedroom, a dressing area separate from the
his-and-hers bathrooms, and a living room the
size of the salon on some 100-footers.
Since Nero will only take 12
guests, each of the staterooms is more than
ample, too; in fact, the two VIP suites
contain salons with plasma TV's.
