Athena, the fourth largest sailing yacht in the world, is now on the market through Burgess for US$53,000,000
Commissioned by an experienced yachtsman, this much admired 90-metre three-masted schooner combines the aesthetics of traditional design with modern technology.
Custom built by the world-class Dutch shipyard Royal Huisman, Athena was designed by the late Pieter Beelsnijder in association with the naval architecture talents of Gerard Dykstra & Partners.
Delivered in 2004, Athena completed a comprehensive refit in 2011.
