A SPECIAL MOMENT: today’s hull turning of Royal Huisman project 408, Aquarius II.
.
Godfrey Cray is the owner’s project manager on his third Royal Huisman build after 58m / 190ft Ngoni, 56m / 184ft Aquarius and now 65m / 212ft Aquarius II. Inhuis asked for his responses to various questions because, while not all readers will see ‘a larger version of the same yacht’ as the most exciting story, we believe they will find much to interest them in these aspects of the project.

Wisp at the St. Barths Bucket Regatta 2023
.
More and more superyacht owners have come to recognize that the thrill of the regatta circuit coupled with the relaxed social ambiance they can enjoy ashore with fellow owners, guests and crew at a regatta makes the perfect complement to their ocean cruising itineraries.
.
Royal Huisman was an early supporter of the original Bucket regatta and has continued to support this event ever since. In 2014 Royal Huisman teamed up with regular supporters to acquire the Bucket Regattas and so to secure the relaxed, owner-focused culture of these special “industry supported” events for the long term.

In the spirit of the bucket we are all winners. Be safe and have fun! Curious to learn more? royalhuisman.com/stbarthsbucket

Farewell event - The launch of a yacht is a time of great pride for owner and shipyard alike: it is the beginning of a great adventure for the owner, family, friends and crew – and of the shipyard’s new role as a provider of services.
.
Today’s Royal Huisman is an extraordinary blend of twenty-first century technology and innovation, traditional craftsmanship and timeless values, yet in 1884 the original yard was established to build small wooden working boats.
.
Nearly 140 years later – and having been awarded the ‘Royal’ Warrant on its 100th anniversary – Royal Huisman builds awardwinning luxury custom yachts that remain to this day unrivalled in many ways. Discover and learn more? royalhuisman.com

Current motoryacht project 406, a unique 52m / 171ft sportfish yacht that will also become the largest of its kind in the world. The individual aspirations and challenges of this project as well as recent motoryacht project 403, PHI, were well outside the comfort zone of many other yards.
.
Benefitting from expert advice, both owners took their highly distinctive visions to Royal Huisman, where these fresh opportunities for creative problem-solving and innovation were enthusiastically welcomed.

When Royal Huisman’s revolutionary 85m New World Sloop was announced last year, only the most subtle hint of the hull lines was provided. With accelerating progress, a new visual has been unveiled, offering further insights into Mani Frers’ sleek design for this remarkable performance sailing megayacht.
.
Remarkable not only for scale and style, but for her green heart, because the New World Sloop will be the most environmentally focused megayacht ever built. Self-generation of energy is just one of many examples in support of that bold description.
.
Dynamic teamwork lies at the heart of this already-highly-productive co-creation between the owner and his team, naval architects Frers Design, interior designers Wetzels Brown and the shipyard’s inhouse engineering team, including expert co-makers.
