The Quintessence of Nautical Luxury
In the ever-evolving world of luxury yachting, the Crescent Custom 120, aptly named Risk and Reward, stands as a testament to fine craftsmanship and elegant design. Built in 2004 in Vancouver, Canada, this stunning 120-foot vessel was meticulously refitted in 2022, ensuring that it not only meets the demands of modern yachting but exceeds expectations in both style and performance.
Design Excellence by Jack Sarin
Conceived by the acclaimed designer Jack Sarin, the Risk and Reward embodies a classic aesthetic combined with practical functionality. The yacht’s hull form is a classic representation of Sarin’s design philosophy, utilizing Crescent Custom Yachts’ innovative variable-geometry mold. This design approach allows for an impressive range of motoryachts between 110 and 130 feet in length, delivering unmatched stability and performance.
The yacht’s sleek lines and moderately fine sections forward transition to chined sections aft, resulting in a ride that is not only comfortable in head seas but also minimizes roll—a critical feature for those who seek serenity at sea.

Unparalleled Comfort and Amenities
Elegance and comfort are woven throughout the interiors of Risk and Reward, originally designed by Robin Rose. The spacious layout features four sumptuous staterooms, each designed to provide a tranquil retreat for guests. The master stateroom, an expansive haven, spans the yacht’s generous 25-foot beam and includes a king-size berth, a desk, a comfortable settee, and a vanity. The ample walk-in locker and more than 30 cedar-lined drawers for stowage ensure that all personal effects are neatly organized.
The formal dining area, adorned with exquisite finishes, comfortably seats eight, offering a perfect setting for intimate gatherings. The yacht also boasts two guest staterooms located just forward of the substantial fuel tanks, ensuring comfort and tranquility, as they share a foyer and stairway with the master suite.
Performance That Inspires Confidence
With a cruising speed of 17 knots and a maximum speed of 21 knots, the Risk and Reward is designed for those who wish to explore the open seas with both speed and grace. The vessel’s low hours on machinery reflect its gentle use by only three owners, each having contributed to its impeccable condition. Further enhancing the onboard experience, the yacht is equipped with zero-speed stabilization, ensuring a smooth ride even when at anchor.
Modern Enhancements for a Luxurious Experience
The current owner has taken significant steps to elevate the onboard experience, including the installation of new furnishings and soft goods. The yacht also features electric motion-detected salon entry doors, which add a touch of modernity and convenience to the luxury experience. This attention to detail ensures that every moment spent aboard is one of relaxation and enjoyment.

Market Position and Ownership Insights
Currently listed at $4.99 million and docked in West Palm Beach, Florida, the Risk and Reward is not just a yacht; it’s a lifestyle choice for discerning buyers seeking a blend of elegance, comfort, and performance. The vessel’s strategic location in the vibrant yachting community of South Florida provides access to some of the world’s most desirable cruising grounds, making it an attractive option for potential owners.
