Luxury yacht docked at Navy Pier Marina: 'He should be in Monaco, not here'

Navy Pier, “the People’s Pier,” has a new attraction — but strictly off limits to the grubby-fingered masses.

For the last few days, a 207-foot-long superyacht has been moored at the west end of the pier, one of the largest private boats docked in the city in recent memory.

Jay Alix, a Michigan corporate turn-around specialist and philanthropist, is the boat’s owner, a source told the Chicago Sun-Times. Alix could not be reached for comment.

“This is crazy. I’m shocked. Until now, you’d only see this type of yacht in Miami. He should be in Monaco, not here,” said Moe Goseph, 37, who lives in a high rise near Lake Michigan and is himself in the yacht industry.

Goseph, like dozens of selfie-snapping visitors at Navy Pier, wondered what that yacht was doing here.

“Unfortunately, I’m not at liberty to discuss those details; it’s a private boat,” said Mark Stevens, the general manager of the Navy Pier Marina.

A crew of young, fit-looking people were seen Thursday hosing down the decks and loading up supplies, including parchment paper and boxes of disposable gloves for chefs.

“I’m sorry, I can’t talk,” a crew member told the Sun-Times.

The crew wore gleaming white T-shirts with the name “Satori” emblazoned across the front.
