The Sichterman 52 is Dutch craftsmanship in miniature, a sixteen-metre yacht built to standards you usually find on boats twice her size. Launched in 2023, she carries the quiet confidence of a yard that cares as much about what you cannot see as what you can.
Step aboard and the detail is everywhere, in the joinery, the finish and the way the spaces flow into one another. Stabilisers at anchor and underway keep her steady whatever the sea is doing, so the day stays comfortable from the first swim to the last. Twin Volvo engines cruise her at an easy twenty-eight knots, quick enough to reach a favourite bay without fuss. Up to eight guests come aboard, looked after by a crew member and an on-board concierge who shapes the day around exactly what you feel like doing.
That tailoring is her real appeal. Whether the plan is a relaxed cruise along the Riviera or a more adventurous day exploring the western Mediterranean, nothing feels off the shelf. The teak underfoot, the light through the salon, the hush of the stabilisers, it all adds up to a day that feels genuinely effortless.
She is a boat for guests who notice the difference good design makes, and who would rather have one beautifully considered day than a busy, generic one.
Ask her crew where to go. Then let them surprise you.
