The heritage of Palmer Johnson makes it unique. From humble beginnings as a wooden fishing boat builder more than 90 years ago, the company has emerged as a premier builder of luxury high performance yachts. Its secure foundation stems from a history of landmark achievements from championship sailing yachts to award winning megayachts. With the largest built aluminium US yacht, the first Explorer of its type, the first MCA compliant yacht, the first gas turbine powered vessels and notably, the "Fortuna" for the King of Spain, Palmer Johnson has a proud background incomparable to other Superyacht builders.
