Following the yacht’s purchase, the NBA legend headed to the Caribbean island of Saint Barthélemy with his friends and made use of the yacht’s amenities. It has a Jacuzzi, a private gym, and an elegant dining room.

Also, the yacht features a full basketball court, which Jordan can use to demonstrate to guests that he still has a talent for the game.

While this is not MJ’s only boat, “Joy” is the most remarkable due to its 70-meter length and luxury furnishings, it features eight cabins that are accessed by an elevator.

Bannenberg & Rowell Design designed the exterior for “Joy.” Its superstructure is made of aluminum, and the hull is made of steel. Teak wood is used for the decks, while Studio Indigo designed the interiors.

The 2016 superyacht includes a total of five decks, each specialized to a different purpose or activity. Among its highlights are the bedrooms and master suite, all designed with ocean mosaics and skylights and granite-finished bathrooms with rain showers.

It features a 270-degree view of the ocean and a beautiful private living space. The entire yacht has been insulated with glass to ensure a comfortable stay in extreme heat or cold.

“Joy” holds 12 guests with a crew of 19. The yacht features spa facilities, including a Jacuzzi and sauna, as well as spacious VIP staterooms.

Guests can pick from a variety of activities, including onboard activities, water sports, and nightlife. Jordan’s favorite and most exciting addition is the basketball court located on the fourth deck, where he can practice the sport while in the ocean.
