SURAMA - ROYAL HUISMAN

The 40.7m (133.5ft) distinguished ketch sailing yacht SURAMA has been carefully preserved and enhanced, showcasing an exceptional, ready-to-sail condition ideal for both leisurely cruising and competitive racing. Crafted by the esteemed Dutch shipyard Royal Huisman in 1997, she was designed as a global cruiser capable of undertaking self-sufficient journeys to the most secluded destinations, while her lightweight, Lloyd’s-classified aluminum hull ensures impressive performance in regattas.

No detail has been overlooked in her upkeep, with a consistent refit schedule guaranteeing that nearly every system and mechanical component has been recently serviced, rebuilt, or replaced. A comprehensive refit at Royal Huisman in 2017 was followed by extensive winter maintenance in 2018 and 2019, ensuring she remains in peak condition.

Featuring the renowned naval architecture of Ted Hood, the elegant exterior design by Fontaine, and 217GT of sophisticated interiors by Winch Design, this yacht’s quality and pedigree are evident. Her lifting centerboard keel allows the draft to decrease from 6.8m (22.3ft) while sailing to just 2.9m (9.4ft), granting access to shallow waters that many other yachts cannot navigate.

SURAMA boasts a serene, contemporary interior that emphasizes spaciousness and natural light. The deckhouse lounge, with its panoramic windows and skylights, floods the informal dining area with sunlight, providing guests with stunning views from the comfort of plush seating. Descending to the main saloon, you’ll find a generous semi-circular seating arrangement and a TV to port, alongside an informal dining space to starboard.

The aft cockpit serves as a multifunctional area perfect for outdoor dining, with the option to collapse the table into a cozy sunpad. Additional outdoor seating and dining arrangements are available between the dual helm stations and the flybridge, all shaded by a broad bimini. A central section of the aft deck conveniently folds down to create a swim platform, facilitating easy access to the water.

Accommodations for up to eight guests are provided in three cabins, all accessible from a central lobby. The split-level owner’s suite is located aft, featuring a curved sofa on the starboard side, with steps leading up to the en suite bathroom on the port side and private access to the cockpit. Two mirror-image twin cabins, each equipped with a pullman berth and en suite bathroom, are situated amidships to port and starboard.

When not under sail, SURAMA is powered by twin Mercedes 570hp engines, enabling her to cruise at 11 knots with an impressive maximum range of 4,305 nautical miles. This yacht for sale is a remarkable opportunity for those looking to buy a yacht in the current boat location, with yacht sales in the area showcasing her as a prime choice for discerning buyers.
