The 140-foot long Majesty 140 superyacht is equipped with a spacious beachfront deck with balconies, a main living room finished with the finest Italian wood and leather, and plenty of space for entertaining including a large TV screen and state-of-the-art sound equipment. Its extensive glass side windows allow plenty of sunlight inside and offer guests stunning panoramic views of the seascape around.

The coveted prize is a highlight in the resume of all its present and previous recipients. It is awarded to the vessel that best combines performance, design, technology and architecture. Majesty 140 was selected by a distinguished and independent panel of judges that included: Ryan Hunter-Reay, American race car driver; Jason Wenig, owner of The Creative Workshop; Francoise Bezzola, Global CMO for Ulysse Nardin; and Ralph Choeff, Principal at Choeff Levy Fischman, P.A.

“We are incredibly honored that our Majesty 140 was recognized as the Best of Show winner at the biggest in-water boat show in the world,” said Greg Terraglio, Managing Partner, Majesty Yachts USA. “Rich with luxurious amenities and exceptional finishes, the commissioned Majesty 140 is unparalleled to any other yacht in the market and we are pleased to show her off throughout the rest of the Fort Lauderdale show.”
