Royal Huisman Schooner200251m

Borkumriff IV was commissioned by an experienced owner who united a shipyard and design team that represent some of the most important names in classic sailing yachts. Her exterior lines come from the design office of American schooner specialist John G. Alden, and her naval architecture was managed by Dutch design house, Dykstra, whose award-winning modern replicas are icons of the sailing superyacht fleet.

The interior was designed by John Munford and features custom furniture and wood panelling in highly polished mahogany, contrasting with the light-coloured ceilings and floors in a way that is pleasing to the eye, makes a nod to tradition, and ensures sufficient brightness.

The interior layout features a saloon and interior dining space on the main deck, and the accommodation on the lower deck. The full-beam master suite is to aft and benefits from a separate study, and there are two guest cabins (configured as twins) midship. All the accommodation is en suite. There’s separate accommodation for the crew in generously proportioned cabins, and a sizeable ship’s galley.
