On Board the 24K Gold Superyacht AK Royalty

A freshly refitted superyacht has splashed onto the charter scene – and its striking appearance makes quite the first impression. The 41.4 metre motor yacht named AK Royalty is coated from bow to stern in a custom paint made from real 24K gold dust.Originally launched in 2009 by American shipyard Palmer Johnson, AK Royalty was purchased by Aaron in 2022. The interior, which features an open plan living and dining area and five cabins for up to 12 guests, was decorated with Kseniya’s expertise. She opted for monochromatic Fendi and Dior furnishings in an attempt to “calm things down a little bit” as a contrast to the very “bling” exterior. But she couldn’t resist adding some bejewelled feline sculptures in the main saloon and master bedroom for some extra glamour.
