February saw the release of the movie 'Fools Gold' starring Kate Hudson and Matthew McCoghauney. But another superstar caught everybody's attention. She was 'Keri Lee', the super yacht which had her name changed to Precious Gem for the purpose of the film. The 138'ft Keri Lee is designed by Jack Sarin and built by Sovereign Yachts of NewZealand. She is powered by twin Detroit 16V 2000 engines. Her cruising range is 3000 miles when holding 8000 gallons of diesel. Her long range cruise speed is 18 knots but she can touch a maximum speed of 24 knots with her semi-displacement hull.
One of the most notable features is her fantastic use of interior space. With one king sized cabin, three queen sized cabins and a twin cabin with four single beds, Keri Lee can comfortably house 10 people. Her charter rates are US$ 70,000 per week for up to 12 guests.
Hollywood seems to be having quite a love affair with yachts starring in so many movies! Wonder if it will rub off on Bollywood too...
Stay tuned as we continue to cover yachts and movies in our next: 'James Bond Special' !
