Aquijo is an 86-metre ketch built by Oceanco and Vitters in 2016, the largest high-performance sailing ketch in the world. She sleeps twelve across seven cabins and offers serious sailing performance, her twin ninety-metre masts drive genuine speed, married to the amenity of a modern superyacht. For guests who want the romance and pace of sailing at flagship scale, without stepping down in luxury, she is close to unrivalled.

On board

Her seven suites include a master, three VIPs and flexible doubles and twins, all richly finished, with an interior volume rare among sailing yachts. She carries a wellness centre with a steam room, sauna and relaxation lounge, plus a gym and elevator, amenities almost unheard of afloat under sail. A crew of seventeen handle both the demanding rig and the hospitality, and the yacht manages to feel both athletic and indulgent at once.

On deck & in the water

Under her towering rig, Aquijo is a genuine performance yacht, capable of exhilarating passages, yet at anchor she offers a sea-view jacuzzi, a beach club and a full watersports inventory. Her sailing capability gives charters a sense of movement and purpose, while her wellness spaces provide the counterbalance. She cruises the Mediterranean and Caribbean, and few yachts let guests swing so completely between adrenaline under sail and stillness at rest.

Why she books

Aquijo books because she is a superlative, the largest high-performance ketch, offering real sailing and full superyacht wellness in one hull. Sailing enthusiasts who refuse to compromise on luxury, and guests drawn to the drama of her rig, seek her out. Her rarity, performance pedigree and unusually complete amenity list keep her a distinctive and steadily requested option among the world's great sailing yachts.
