Earvin "Magic" Johnson doesn't own a yacht, but he regularly hires large-format vessels and posts about them on social media. As the 65-year-old former NBA star measures 2.06 metres, it is important to charter a suitable maritime vessel simply because of the ceiling height.
The list is as long as it is exclusive, just to mention a few of his chartered yachts: the 86 metre long "Aquila" from Derecktor, the two Lürssens "Phoenix 2" (90 m) and "Solandge" (85 m) or the 70 metre "Amadeus".
Ex-NBA star cruises the Mediterranean
The US-American is always on holiday in the Mediterranean and particularly enjoys visiting the popular Italian and French gems: Sorrento, Capri, Porto Cervo, Portofino or Antibes, Cannes and Monaco. His yacht trips end up in local newspapers, but the LA Lakers legend usually posts on social media where he has travelled. Johnson is often accompanied by family and friends such as Lionel Richie, Samuel L. Jackson and rapper LL Cool J.
