The American Custom Yachts 90, the builder's flagship, launched in 2012 for the owner of ACY and his large family. Marlin reviewed her in 2013 on twin MTU 16V4000s. Their 9,200 hp sits on an aluminum engine bed and turns V-drives at a reduced shaft angle, so she backs down on a fish with her stern up. In 2020 ACY's president called her the largest boat the builder had made and his favorite. Documented as C'est La Vie out of Stuart, Florida.
