K&M Yachtbuilders are proud to announce that they are the chosen yacht builder for an 88 ft (26m) classic sloop TULIP. The Sailing Yacht Tulip is designed by the Argentinean Naval Architect German Frers Jr.
The Dutch owner together with German Frers has designed the yacht Tulip with a classic hull form above the waterline. Despite the classic hull, Tulip yacht features modern aspects below water line, such as a flat underwater hull and a raising keel. The light and fast sailing yacht Tulip will be perfect for taking place in regattas.
Sailing Yacht Tulip will offer accommodation for six guests and two crew members. Her lifting keel provides for a large sailing area and more options for navigating in smaller harbours.
The owner is planning to take this superb yacht sailing in the Mediterranean and the Caribbean during the next few years. The size and the separate crew area also make the vessel ideal for use as a charter yacht.
There is room on board for six guests and two crew members. The wheelhouse will be the central living space on board, with a dining table, card table, TV, library and refrigerator in the same space. All four cabins of the superyacht Tulip have their own wet cell in order to give the owner and guests all the privacy and comfort they need. The cockpit is spacious and teak lined, as is the rest of the deck.
This is the first time that K&M Yachtbuilders has built a German Frers design. They are very much looking forward to working with this well-known and respected designer from Argentina. Sinot Yacht Design in Eemnes will be providing a stylish, modern and luxurious interior design. Natural colours such as brown, beige, cream and grey will alternate with the intense dark orange that frequently recurs in the detailing.
The owner is planning to go sailing in the Mediterranean in the Caribbean from the spring of 2012.
