PALMER JOHNSON
DB9: Iconic Performance. Exceptional Outdoor Living. A Rare Opportunity.
DB9 (52m/172’) is an iconic Palmer Johnson 170 that combines unmistakable Nuvolari Lenard styling, exhilarating performance and exceptional outdoor living.
Distinguished by her low-profile lines, metallic finish and commanding proportions, DB9 makes an immediate statement. Built in aluminium in 2010 and comprehensively refitted in 2026, she offers a compelling combination of speed, pedigree and versatile living space. A top speed of approximately 31 knots and a shallow draft provide owners and guests with greater freedom to access secluded bays and exclusive anchorages.
DB9 has been designed around outstanding outdoor living and effortless entertaining. The main deck aft features open-air dining and expansive lounge areas, with steps leading to an aft hot tub and swim platform at the water’s edge. Forward, an exceptional 8-metre swimming pool is framed by generous sunbathing space and uninterrupted views. The sundeck provides a further private retreat, complete with a second hot tub, sun beds and shaded lounge seating, while an open-air cinema creates a memorable setting for entertainment from day into night.
The interior by Nuvolari Lenard delivers a warm, contemporary atmosphere with strong visual appeal. Large windows flood the main saloon and dining area with natural light, while rich woods, polished detailing and statement lighting create a refined yet welcoming environment. A dedicated bar further enhances the main deck’s credentials as a sophisticated entertaining space.
DB9 accommodates up to 12 guests across five well-appointed staterooms. The Owner’s Stateroom is ideally positioned on the main deck and benefits from generous lounge and dressing areas together with a marble en-suite bathroom. Two VIP staterooms and two twin staterooms complete the versatile guest accommodation.
More than €5 million has been invested in an extensive refit programme carried out at Monaco Marine and Shipyard Portosole Sanremo over the past three years. Now presented following this significant programme of works, DB9 represents a highly attractive opportunity to acquire a proven Palmer Johnson 170 with substantial recent capital investment, renowned performance and strong market appeal.
