Broughton Street developer Ben Carter brings his yacht to town | savannahnow.com

If you’ve driven or strolled down Bluff Drive recently, you’ve no doubt noticed the mega yacht docked at the Isle of Hope Marina. The privately owned, 140-foot motor yacht Capricorn can accommodate 12 guests in six luxury cabins and features a helipad, a cinema, Jacuzzis in the master cabin and upper deck, a captain and a crew of seven, including a chef.

If the picture looks familiar, maybe you also saw her docked on River Street during Savannah’s recent Fashion Week, where owner Ben Carter hosted a reception for the event’s sponsors.

“This is one of my two getaways,” Carter said, adding that the other is his farm in Madison.

“I used to have a 90-foot sailboat that my family and I took around the world,” he said. “It took about three years to complete.

“Next year, we’re going to do the same thing on the new boat.”
