Yacht Description
Award-winning sailing, sized right. WHISPER is a 116ft (35.36m) Holland Jachtbouw sloop, built in 2003 and refit in 2019, that keeps things simple in the best way: serious sailing pedigree for up to 6 guests.
Views, not just seating. The raised pilothouse with bar is the signature hangout, with 360-degree panoramic sightlines when you want to be in the action without being on the rail. Short version: you will actually use this space.
Deck life that works. A large shaded cockpit seats up to 10 for long lunches, and the swim platform plus outdoor shower make the water-to-deck reset fast, not a production.
Toys for real afternoons. Bring the competitive friends: wakeboard, adult and child water skis, kneeboard, towable tube, plus kayaks and paddleboards for slower laps. Snorkelling equipment and light fishing gear round out the “stay off your phone” plan, though Wi‑Fi is onboard if you insist.
Three cabins, good logic. She sleeps 6 in 3 en-suite cabins: a full-beam master with a queen bed (with desk and settee), one double, and one twin.
