Media mogul Rupert Murdoch has put his $30 million yacht on the market. The 184-foot Rosehearty was launched in 2006. The interior was designed by Christian Liaigre. The living areas feature pale oak woods and Hermes leather furnishings. The formal dining area showcases a more intimate atmosphere with a dark wood table and chairs, soft lighting and warm red seating. Rosehearty comfortably accommodates up to 12 guests in a full-beam master suite, two identical VIP staterooms, two doubles and a single with Pullman berth.
The aft deck offers ample space for sun lounging with three steamer-style loungers, while the large upper deck and flybridge feature sun pads that extend the full width of the aft section with a large Jacuzzi in front.
Rosehearty sports aluminium masts and carbon furling booms with the latest in-boom furling for mainsail and mizzen and the trademark Perini captive reel winches, all designed and built by Perini Navi.
The yacht has a cruising speed of 13 knots, and a maximum speed of 16 knots.
Murdoch is selling the yacht in the wake of his divorce with Wendi Deng after 14 years of marriage. Deng is Murdoch’s third wife.
