150’ (45.72m) Christensen IONIAN PRINCESS Goes to Auction

Posted March 11, 2025 in Brokerage & New Build

Northrop & Johnson is pleased to present the 150’ (45.72m) Christensen motor yacht IONIAN PRINCESS for auction. This is an excellent opportunity to own a high-volume, pedigree yacht at an incredible value. Bidding starts at $4,000,000, well below her current asking price of $10,900,000. The yacht is available for private viewing in Fort Lauderdale, with the official viewing period opening on March 11, 2025. Live online bidding runs from March 26 through April 9, 2025.

Northrop & Johnson yacht brokers Sean Doyle and Wes Sanford are proud to represent IONIAN PRINCESS in partnership with Boathouse Auctions, ensuring a smooth, efficient, and transparent auction process. With a fully reimagined interior, extensive mechanical upgrades, and an impressive charter pedigree, IONIAN PRINCESS is primed for her next owner.

Built by Christensen Yachts, IONIAN PRINCESS is a tri-deck motor yacht designed for serious cruising and entertaining. She offers six staterooms, accommodating up to 12 guests, with a flexible layout that includes a full-beam master suite on the main deck with a private office and a marble ensuite. There’s also a full-beam VIP, three double cabins, and a twin, plus the option to convert a space into a seventh stateroom if needed. The yacht’s generous interior and exterior spaces make her well-suited for hosting, whether it’s alfresco dining on the sundeck and upper aft deck or a formal dinner in the main deck dining area. A custom etched-glass door allows the dining space to be open and inviting or closed off for a more intimate setting.

IONIAN PRINCESS received a full interior refit in 2022, reimagined in partnership with Yacht Next to create a stylish, contemporary feel. That same year, her engine room was completely overhauled with brand-new Caterpillar C-32 engines and rebuilt generators. A second refit in 2023-2024 focused on mechanical upgrades, ensuring she’s in top condition. With a cruising speed of 13 knots and a top speed of 20, she’s built for comfort, enhanced by Quantum Zero Speed Stabilizers for smooth cruising underway.

The yacht’s sundeck is one of the largest in her class, featuring a 10-person Jacuzzi, a barbecue, and plenty of space to lounge with panoramic views. The skylounge doubles as a cinema, perfect for movie nights, while the swim platform offers easy access to a full range of water toys and tenders. There is an option to convert the onboard massage room into a gym, if desired.

A proven performer on the charter market, IONIAN PRINCESS has the versatility to be a private escape or a high-earning charter yacht.

The yacht is currently in her viewing period. Bidding begins on March 26. For more information on the auction of IONIAN PRINCESS, for sale with Yacht Brokers Sean Doyle and Wes Sanford, please contact Northrop & Johnson’s press team.
