Puerto Portals.—Berthed opposite Wellies Restaurant in Puerto Portals you will find a unique boat that has just arrived on the island: the brand new Pearl 75. This beautiful craft was designed and built last year by Pearl Motor Yachts in Stratford Upon Avon and has made its maiden voyage to Majorca to participate in the Palma Boat Show. Pearl Motor Yachts is owned by Majorca residents and business people Tony and Margaret Whittaker OBE. Tony and Margaret not only own the business but they have also overseen the technical and interior design of this new addition to the Pearl fleet.

The Pearl 75 has made waves in many ways: this is the first ever yacht interior that the internationally famous interior designer Kelly Hoppen MBE has created and she has been rewarded with a nomination in the prestigious “Best Yacht Interior” category in the 2013 International Yacht and Aviation Awards.

Kelly is well known for her signature style of sleek elegant lines, combinations of textures and use of neutral taupe with accents of silver as well as being known as the interior designer for the rich and famous having worked on many movie stars' homes. Kelly, no stranger to Majorca herself having holidayed here only last summer, is a very successful business woman and is about to star as the new Dragon in the hit BBC2 TV series “Dragons' Den”.
