ATLANTIS is a legendary 1970s yacht — designed by Pininfarina and built by Intermarine — whose cinematic life began when she was commissioned by James Bond producer Albert “Cubby” Broccoli and appeared in The Spy Who Loved Me. Now based in Windsor and undergoing a full, faithful restoration, she bridges Italian design pedigree and cinematic cachet as she is readied for a new chapter.
