We are proud to share the hull turning of our latest design, the 68-meter (224 ft) classic ketch currently under construction at Vitters Shipyard. The yacht is scheduled for delivery to her owners in late 2026. The design of the yacht is a further evolution of the well-known 55-meter ketches Adele and Marie, the 47-meter sloop Wisp, and the 50-meter ketch Meraki and others, all to our designs.
Commissioned by a repeat client of Hoek Design, the yacht will feature a large owner's suite, five guest cabins, and seven crew cabins. With a Panamax mast height she is capable of transiting the Panama Canal.
Extensive Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Velocity Prediction Program (VPP) studies were conducted to optimize the hull shape and appendages to ensure the yacht will have optimal balance, reduced leeway, and superior sailing performance.
All naval architecture, exterior- and interior design is by Hoek Design, while the interior decoration is by Williams Lawrence, led by Bunny Williams. Van Ineveld & Co is overseeing the build on behalf of the owners. This is the tenth Superyacht that Vitters Shipyard and Hoek Design are working on together presently.
