1978 Cammenga 57M Motor Yacht

This 1978 Cammenga motor yacht was designed by De Vries Lentsch and built as one of the largest private yachts of her era. At nearly 188 feet with a steel hull, she was conceived as a true passagemaker with a graceful canoe stern and engineered for long-range cruising. Twin Paxman Valenta engines rated at 1,350 hp each drive her to 16 knots maximum, with a comfortable cruising speed of 12 knots and a 6,000-nautical-mile range.

The yacht accommodates 13 guests across seven cabins distributed over three decks, plus crew quarters for up to 18 staff. The owner's suite on the main deck includes a private lounge, dressing room, and en suite. A VIP suite sits on the bridge deck, while the lower deck houses a second VIP suite, two double cabins, one twin, and one single cabin. The main salon serves as the social hub, flowing into the lobby and formal dining room, with a smaller art-focused salon accessible via spiral staircase.

Exterior spaces are extensive. The bridge deck features a shaded dining area and sunpads wrapping the aft deck, while the sundeck includes a Jacuzzi surrounded by sunpads and a bar integrated into the funnel structure. The main deck aft offers a seating area and bar with a convertible passerelle and hydraulic platforms for tender access. Two tenders with dedicated cranes provide launch capability, and the foredeck accommodates jet-ski storage and additional seating.

Between 2014 and 2015, RMK Shipyard carried out a comprehensive interior rebuild under Humphreys Yacht Design, introducing a new layout while preserving the yacht's classic character. Burmese teak joinery and bespoke fittings complement extensive artwork throughout. Mechanical systems have been continuously maintained and overhauled through successive refit periods, including major work at RMK Marine in 2014–15, 2019–20, and 2021, with additional injector, fuel-system, and electrical testing completed in 2023–24. The yacht remains in Lloyd's class.
