Retro revival: The best modern classic yachts

Athena

Launched by Royal Huisman in 2004

The 90 metre Athena, built by Royal Huisman, is inspired by classic schooner yachts, but has a modern twist. This modernity is appreciated in Athena's sail plan and rig, which benefits from in-mast and in-boom furling.

The three-masted schooner Athena flies some 2,500 square metres of sail, which can be set and stowed at just a press of a button(s) thanks to the 55 Rondal captive winches on board.

The iconic Athena's imposing size is well divided by her designer Pieter Beeldsnijder, who broke up massive interior spaces into welcoming living areas.
