2023 Vitters Cruising Ketch

This 2023 Vitters Cruising Ketch is an aluminum hull design from the German Frers and Vitters collaboration, delivered in December 2023. At nearly 194 feet with a beam of 110 feet, she combines substantial size with refined proportions. She is powered by a MAN V12 diesel engine producing 1,199 horsepower, achieving a cruising speed of 11 knots and a maximum speed of 13 knots.

The rigging and deck systems reflect high-performance sailing priorities: Southern Spars rig, Doyle sails, and Harken deck equipment work together for capable handling. Twin Zenoro generators support her onboard systems. The aluminum construction and German Frers design speak to both durability and aesthetic refinement, with anigre hardwood used throughout the interior for warmth and visual continuity.

She accommodates nine cabins for extended cruising or hosting. All systems and mechanical components have been fully run in during the warranty period, which has just concluded. The boat was completed to exacting specifications under close owner oversight and project management, reflecting meticulous attention to every detail of her build.
