MILWAUKEE — The massive 200-foot "super yacht" apparently owned by Miami Marlins owner Bruce Sherman made port in Milwaukee, to the surprise of early risers Wednesday morning.

The $70 million boat docked alongside Discovery World, after swinging through Chicago last week for the Cubs-Marlins series, according to reports and our partners at the Milwaukee Business Journal.

The yacht can host 14 guests as well as its eight-person crew. It has seven cabins, and was built in 2007.

Checking out super yacht in Milwaukee

It's the third super yacht to dock in Milwaukee in recent years, the BizJournal reports. In 2019 the $125-million yacht "Hampshire" made port, once owned by auto dealership billionaire Larry Van Tuyl.

Jimmy John's founder Jimmy John Liautaud's yacht stopped in Milwaukee for several days in 2018.

Correction: The ship arrived in Milwaukee Tuesday evening. Larry's last name is spelled Tuyl.
