In this video, filmed at the 2020 Miami Boat Show, Nick Burnham takes us on an access-all-areas tour of Illusion, a 2004 Johnson 87 yacht.


Her age may co*e as some surprise, given her immaculate condition, but this speaks to both the quality of the original build (Johnson is a custom yard based in Taiwan) and the care that has been lavished on her over the years, with refits in 2010 and 2019.


The amount of space you get onboard is equally impressive – as Nick explains, it’s not that often you see an owner’s cabin this big on a sub-90ft superyacht, let alone one with a mezzanine-level ensuite with its own coffee machine and wine cooler.


Other star features include a dedicated indoor dining area with room for up to 8 guests and a convertible skylounge.
