Introducing BILLY BUDD, an amazing 34,25m, 112′ 22″ high-performance contemporary sloop built by the esteemed Royal Huisman shipyard. With a rich regatta history and 15 years of dedicated family ownership, this meticulously maintained all-aluminium yacht recently underwent an extensive refit in 2017, making her ready for new adventures on the open seas.
BILLY BUDD excels in performance thanks to her sleek hull, carbon fiber mast, and fully overhauled spars from 2010, paired with a modern sail set. Designed for high-latitude sailing and exploration, she delivers exceptional speed and maneuverability. Under her current ownership, she has not only won superyacht regattas but also successfully circumnavigated the globe.
Step inside, and you’ll find an inviting interior designed by Pieter Beeldsnijder. The split-level layout allows natural light to fill the spacious area, creating a warm ambiance. Accommodating up to six guests, BILLY BUDD offers a master suite and two double cabins, while the crew enjoys separate quarters located at the bow.
Fresh from a 2022 refit, BILLY BUDD boasts significant upgrades. The hull has been repainted for a pristine appearance, and the rigging has been replaced for enhanced reliability and safety. A comprehensive machinery overhaul ensures optimal performance across various conditions. Plus, a new bank of batteries was added in 2023 to boost efficiency.
BILLY BUDD is equipped with impressive features that affirm her status as a world-class yacht. Powered by a Scania 430hp turbocharged diesel engine, she achieves a remarkable 3,500 nautical mile range and a top speed of 12 knots, perfect for round-the-world cruising. With ample storage, refrigerator, and freezer capabilities, your provisions will stay fresh throughout your journey.
For the adventurous spirit, BILLY BUDD comes with a dive compressor and equipment for seven divers, along with two tenders. The foredeck features a 4.20m Zodiac with a 40hp four-stroke engine and a 60hp two-stroke Evinrude outboard, while a garage accommodates a 3-meter Zodiac with a Yamaha 20hp four-stroke outboard.
With her elegant lines and contemporary sloop design, BILLY BUDD captivates. The enclosed center cockpit ensures safe navigation, while the spacious main salon welcomes natural light, enhancing the overall appeal of the interior.
BILLY BUDD represents a unique opportunity to own a robust, safe, and reliable world-cruising yacht, promising unforgettable experiences on the high seas.
