Athos following her conversion at ‘Huisfit by Royal Huisman’ in Amsterdam. Royal Huisman is principally known as a builder of fine custom yachts, but the same standards of expertise and craftsmanship are equally accessible for superyacht refits.

Many Huisfit commissions are undertaken for repeat clients and returning yachts initiated by word-of-mouth recommendations, always based on the team’s understanding that today’s client is tomorrow’s ambassador.

Athos following her conversion at ‘HUISFIT by Royal Huisman’ in Amsterdam. Royal Huisman is principally known as a builder of fine custom yachts, but the same standards of expertise and craftsmanship are equally accessible for superyacht refits.

Every yacht requires a refit and refurbishment from time to time. Even Royal Huisman yachts eventually feel the strain of the extensive global passage-making so thoroughly enjoyed by their owners. Huisfit, Royal Huisman’s dedicated division for refit, rebuild and renewal, offers an extensive range of benefits and services to all superyachts in the global fleet.

Video animation of the 65m Aquarius II sailing at St. Barth. The 56-metre world cruising ketch Aquarius (I), launched by Royal Huisman in 2018, redefined the modern classic genre.

Graceful and understated yet powerful and exciting to sail, she came first in class at the St. Barths Bucket Regatta twice. She is also an entry at the current 2024 edition and “close to perfect”.

In-build at Royal Huisman and scheduled for delivery later this year, 65-metre Aquarius II is so similar in style and spirit to her smaller predecessor that you might think you’re seeing double.

But under her modern classic exterior, the custom cruising ketch benefits from literally hundreds of tweaks to enhance operations and improve performance. “She’s basically the same boat on steroids.”
