If any yacht owner could claim to have the Midas touch, it’d be Aaron Fidler. His newly refitted 136-foot Palmer Johnson AK Royalty is painted entirely in 24-karat-gold dust. Just to make it a bit more extra, Fidler also had the Jet Skis and SeaBobs colored to match.
The former deckhand is now a superyacht owner. And when the time came to buy his dream yacht, Fidler knew exactly what he wanted: a fast, sporty luxury toy that matches his gold Lamborghini. And he wanted to make sure the new yacht would turn heads. If the gold doesn’t do it for onlookers, he figured, the boat’s DJ booth, Fendi-inspired interior, and 38 mph top speed would.
