This American beauty needs no introduction. At her Fort Lauderdale debut, she hosted a steady flow of admirers and visitors who wanted to see if the long-awaited new queen of the American yachtbuilding industry. She is the largest yacht built in the United States since the 1930s and everyone wanted to see if she had hit her marks. They were not disappointed. Designer Tim Heywood gave her all the right curves and her interior designer, Elizabeth Dalton, made the yacht’s huge interior approachable and even homey. The woodwork is outstanding. Cakewalk has a huge garage with to die-for tenders and many other toys. She is now available for sale. Unfortunately, the Derecktor Shipyard that built the yacht at its Connecticut facility had to file once again for bankruptcy after running into financial difficulties.
