One of the most striking superyachts sailing the Seven Seas has just gone up for sale. Khalilah and her luxe gold exterior have been turning heads since 2015 and now the showstopper could now be yours for a cool $31 million.

But it’s more than shine and dynamic lines that render this vessel worthy of eight figures; Khalilah is a straight-up history maker. The 160-foot cruiser was the first all-carbon superyacht ever built.

The handiwork of Palmer Johnson , the yacht’s carbon composite construction and revolutionary wave-penetrating hull means she can cruise at high speeds—26 knots being the top—with optimal fuel consumption. Moreover, there’s no need for zero speed stabilizers thanks to her 35-foot beam.

Onboard, Khalilah can accommodate up to 11 gilded guests within five well-appointed staterooms. The suitably opulent master suites are situated on the main deck and feature full-length windows that afford panoramic vistas. Elsewhere on this level is a generously sized living space and salon featuring a contemporary LED light installation, an ultra-modern galley, an alfresco dining area—complete with a bespoke cactus wood dining table—and vast aft deck.

Set on the upper deck is the hip skylounge. Perfect for after-hours socializing, the space is equipped with a high-tech entertainment system, overhead lights and comfortable lounges where you can while away the evening. Just ahead of the skylounge, you’ll find a sheltered terrace with a sunken spa pool to accommodate a late-night dip.

To top it all off, Khalilah comes packed with a matching 20-foot tender—dripping in gold, of course—as well as an array of water toys, including a jet pack, hoverboard, wakeboard, jet skis, kayaks, paddle boards and inflatables.

Exclusively for sale with SuperYachtsMonaco , the superyacht has an asking price of roughly $31 million (€28.5 million). If the festive season has you watching your shekels, you can also charter the superyacht.

KHALILAH Yacht – The Incredible $30,000,000 Superyacht

Measuring a length of 48 meters KHALILAH yacht was built by the US shipyard Palmer Johnson in 2015 and is currently available for charter.

She has space for eleven guests in five cabins and is easily recognizable due to her golden finish.

KHALILAH yacht interior

All design stages, including the interior of the KHALILAH yacht, were completed by Palmer Johnson Yachts.

There are five cabins on board that can accommodate up to eleven guests. The KHALILAH yacht has twin master suites, one VIP cabin, and one double cabin, as well as a twin and an additional Pullman berth.

Nine crew members find space in cabins below deck. The KHALILAH yacht is often described as a family-friendly yacht with a lot of features that are adjusted to children including her unusual interior design. 

In addition to her wide selection of water toys, families will appreciate the cabin layout and the onboard jacuzzi.

The beach club is perfect for a quick swim before a delicious dinner prepared by the five-star chef on board KHALILAH.

The yacht has impressive underwater lighting, wifi, and an upscale entertainment system. The interior of the KHALILAH yacht was designed to be tasteful and contemporary.

The style is somewhat eccentric in places, with colorful patterns and unusual features like a squid-shaped lamp in the main salon.

This is yet another aspect in which KHALILAH is an excellent yacht for families and not a conventional charter vessel.

Palmer Johnson gave her a unique interior to set KHALILAH apart from other superyachts and to match her already prominent exterior.

The furnishings of the yacht also have a distinct south-east Asian influence, with several buddha statues spread throughout the vessel.

Several cabins have intricate wood carvings decorating the walls, and there are traditional decorations and murals to be found onboard the luxury yacht.

Most notably, one of the bathrooms is entirely decorated with a colorful mosaic depicting cartoon-like sea animals, which is sure to be popular among children spending time aboard the KHALILAH yacht.

Other bathrooms are more minimalistic with white marble finishes and discreet mosaics of trees and other natural scenes.

Specifications

The KHALILA yacht is 48 meters (157.6 ft) long with an 11-meter (36.1 ft) beam and a 2.1-meter (6.11 ft) draft.

She is considered the world’s first all-carbon superyacht and is especially environmentally friendly with reduced emissions and exceptional fuel efficiency.

Both her hull and superstructure are built out of carbon, making her a lightweight vessel at only 485 tons.

She is powered by twin MTU engines which allow her to reach impressive speeds of up to 30 knots.

She comfortably cruises at 28 knots, making her one of the faster yachts in her size category.

Due to her highly efficient engines, she still has a range of 1,500 nautical miles and is the perfect yacht for visiting destinations in shallow waters due to her low draft.

The KHALILAH yacht is one of the most striking superyachts in the world and is guaranteed to draw attention wherever she goes with her pearlescent gold finish.

She is accompanied by a matching 6.8-meter (22 ft) gold tender, and her aerodynamic design gives her a sleek and elegant appearance.

On the aft, the yacht has a spacious swimming platform and storage area for water toys with an adjacent seating area with a beach club.

With her many floor-to-ceiling windows and large decks, KHALILAH perfectly merges indoor and outdoor living and provides guests with many choices for relaxing and enjoying the views.

One of her more unusual features is the custom extendable staircase that can be used to board guests and extend onto the water if requested as an unconventional seating area.

The exterior of the KHALILAH yacht was designed by Palmer Johnson Yachts , which is also the shipyard where the vessel was constructed. As a charter yacht, Khalilah has a fantastic selection of water toys on board to entertain her guests. There are jet skis, water skis, kayaks, paddleboards, and inflatables, all stored aft of the vessel.

The adjacent deck is exceptionally large and measures over 110 square feet giving guests plenty of space for sunbathing or exercising. 

The KHALILAH yacht has an estimated price of US $30 million. She generates annual running costs of approximately US $1 to $3 million.

Khalilah is available for charter at a weekly price of US $225,000 per week during both the winter and summer seasons. She is based in the Mediterranean and is primarily available for charter there. Khalilah is also available for sale at a listing price of US $28,5 million, although it is unclear whether a buyer has already been found.

All-carbon gold 50m superyacht sees €2 million price drop

The 49.5-metre Khalilah , one of the most recognisable yachts in the world, has had €2,000,000 taken off her asking price. Listed for sale with Remy Becquet of Fraser , the yacht is fresh from a €2.5 million refit and a comprehensive nine-year service of her technical equipment that leaves her in prime condition and ready for a new owner. 

Aside from her rigorous maintenance programme, the yacht has a number of tick-box features that make her a good addition to the market - including an impressive 10.8-metre beam, 24-knot top speed and a remarkably bright and airy interior with ample windows throughout. 

The yacht is one of the best-priced Palmer Johnson sport yachts for sale in this size bracket, according to BOATPro . She was the largest carbon-composite-built superyacht in the world when she was delivered in 2014, and has a proven track record as a charter favourite thanks to her long list of amenities. 

Accommodation is for 11 guests in five cabins, with each cabin following a different theme that adds to the yacht's distinctive character. Those interior themes extend into the main saloon, where there is a generous lounge area overlooked by a contemporary octopus art piece on the ceiling. For an alternative social living area, Khalilah also has a skylounge.

In terms of al fresco living, the 490 GT yacht offers an 110-square-metre aft deck with sunpads, lounge area and 12-seat dining. Elsewhere, a newly-enlarged swim platform is attached to the beach club, which is fitted with twin side-loading shell doors. 

For guests looking to stretch out or take a dip, the sundeck has a large sunpad block and a Jacuzzi can be found on the foredeck.

The American-built superyacht is part of Palmer Johnson's popular SuperSport series. She has a cruising speed of 15 knots, cruising range of 2,280 nautical miles and is equipped with two MTU (2,600 hp) engines. 

Khalilah is asking €22,900,000 excluding VAT.
