Amsterdam-based Dykstra Naval Architects has unveiled the design of a new 53-meter LOA sloop-rigged sailing yacht, created for a family of experienced sailors.

Designed for long-range bluewater cruising and optimized for performance in regattas such as the St Barths Bucket, the yacht seamlessly combines comfort, elegance, and agility. Her sleek lines and powerful rig reflect the studio’s hallmark approach—blending timeless design with advanced naval architecture.

The yacht will be built at Vitters Shipyard, with interior design by Vripack Yacht Design and project management by Van Ineveld & Co.. Together, they bring Dutch pedigree, craftsmanship, and contemporary design expertise to the project.

Versatile by nature, she is equally at home circumnavigating the globe in comfort or competing on the international racing stage.

With this new design, Dykstra continues its tradition of delivering yachts that balance performance, innovation, and beauty.
