Currently, only preliminary details are available for the Royal Huisman yard’s most recent order: a stunning 36.58m/120’ modern classic cruising yacht whose styling will offer many nostalgic references to a former era.
Pictured is Meteor, a famous Royan Huisman modern classic cruising yacht.
The attractive exterior profile will be home to a high standard of modern living amenity below; on deck, advanced sail handling technologies and yacht management systems will make light work of extended voyaging.
Naval architecture is by Gerard Dykstra & Partners, with interior by Rhoades Young. Concept development is at an early stage but it can be stated that the design features two deckhouses on a clean, open deck above a sensitively sheered hull with an elegant transom stern. There is a secluded owner’s cockpit behind the aft deckhouse, complemented by a comfortable on-deck dining area between the helm and the main deckhouse. Underwater, a fully ballasted and retractable bulb keel will marry performance with shoal draft cruising.
Project Management will be undertaken by Jens Cornelsen, adding yet another credit to his long list of successful co-operations with Royal Huisman.
