Maximus II セーリングヨット

Ten guests aboard a 59-metre sailing yacht, with nine crew to run her, points to days spent on deck under sail rather than at anchor in a marina. Vitters built Maximus II in 2023, hull and superstructure both in aluminium, a build suited to covering distance under canvas.

Build and provenance

Vitters delivered Maximus II in 2023 as a 59-metre (194-foot) sailing monohull, built in aluminium from the hull to the superstructure. At 395 gross tons she carries real volume below her sail plan, and her aluminium construction keeps her light for her length, a material choice suited to a yacht built to sail rather than motor.

Layout and accommodation

Ten guests sleep across four cabins, with a crew of nine to sail her and run the interior, close to one crew member for every guest aboard. That ratio points to a yacht crewed for proper passages, not just afternoons on the water.

Performance and engineering

As a sailing yacht, Maximus II's recorded speed under way is 11 knots, a cruising pace that favours steady passages over quick bursts. Her aluminium build keeps weight down through the hull and rig, in keeping with a boat built to sail rather than motor.

Where she lies and how to see her

Maximus II lies in Newport, in the United States. Boatcrowd arranges viewings there and is present for each one; once an offer is accepted, we bring in the surveyor and set the sea trial ahead of handover.
