FOCUS 153’ (46.6m) North American Shipbuilding Yacht Sold

Northrop & Johnson is pleased to announce the sale of the 153’ (46.6m) motor yacht FOCUS, represented by Yacht Brokers Sean Doyle, Mike Finnegan, and Wes Sanford. She was last asking $9,999,000.

Built by North American Shipbuilding and delivered in 2002, FOCUS is a full-aluminum, semi-displacement motor yacht designed by Luiz De Basto. She has undergone extensive technical and cosmetic upgrades between 2023 and 2025. She is powered by twin Caterpillar 3512B engines, each delivering 2,250hp at 1925rpm and a top speed of 18 knots and a comfortable cruising speed of 13 knots. With a 5,000-nautical-mile range at cruising speed, FOCUS is well-suited for transatlantic passages and off-grid exploration. She is built to ABS classification and fully MCA compliant. FOCUS features a full-service elevator connecting all decks and Quantum zero-speed stabilizers for total stability at anchor and underway.

The yacht’s interior, designed by Ralph Lauren Home, is a timeless blend of African Makore mahogany and Tuscan marble. Her five-stateroom layout accommodates 10 guests, including a uniquely positioned upper deck master suite. On the lower deck, guests are welcomed into a mix of queen and twin staterooms, all with en-suite baths or showers.

Among her most distinctive features is the partially enclosed sundeck. The forward section is fully enclosed with panoramic windows, creating an observation lounge with 270-degree views, while the open aft section offers a Jacuzzi and lounge seating. Expansive exterior spaces continue across the yacht, including an aft deck dining area and multiple alfresco lounging options.

From her long-range cruising capabilities and robust build quality to her timeless interior and technical pedigree, FOCUS is ready for her next global adventure.
