The Largest yacht to be built in the United States since the 1930's will make a debut appearance at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show next month. The 85 metre long yacht cost 82 million Dollars to build for the Denver private equity investor Charles Gallagher.

The yachts exterior styling is by Tim Heywood and the interior design by Liz Dalton of Dalton Designs along with close collaboration with Cakewalk’s owners. “The client requested a yacht that was not too aggressively modern but a boat that would be a milestone in good taste,” says Tim Heywood.

Launched from US shipyard Derecktor this year, Cakewalk will be available for luxury charters for five to ten weeks a year in the Mediterranean, through Florida-based yacht management firm Yacht Logistics. She will be kept for the owners' own use for the rest of the year.
