17 April 2024 • Written by Dea Jusufi and Holly Margerrison

Royal Hakvoort's 61-metre superyacht Asia is now on sea trials. Previously known as Project Asia, she was successfully launched from the shipyard's facilities in Monnickendam, the Netherlands, at the start of the year.

Designed inside and out by Sinot Yacht Architecture & Design, the 61-metre was sold by Moran Yacht & Ship in 2019 and began construction shortly after. She is the seventh new build Hakvoort project sold and overseen by the broker.

Also known as Hull YN 253, Asia features accommodation for a total of 12 guests, including a master cabin on a private deck, with a stateroom, two bathrooms, a study and skylounge.

The rest of the guest accommodation comprises a full beam VIP suite on the main deck, alongside the lounge and formal dining area. Four additional double cabins sit on the lower deck, alongside crew quarters that comprise eight en suite cabins. A swimming pool, bar and sunpads sit on the sundeck, while the wheelhouse and gym are found on the upper deck.

Two large tenders will be stored in the garage on the main deck at port and starboard. The lower deck aft will include a massage room and Hammam.

According to BOATPro, Royal Hakvoort has two other yachts currently under construction. The shipyard also recently signed a contract for a 45-metre superyacht designed by Hoek Design Naval Architects.
