Built by the highly respected Dutch custom yacht builder Royal Huisman, yacht Kamaxitha features exterior lines created by Gerard Dykstra and Partners that combine sympathetic period features with modern, easily driven hull shape below. S/Y Kamaxitha’s interior design was created by the well-known design studio Rhoades Young Design.

Superyacht KAMAXITHA was built under the Royal Huisman hull number 388. The Kamaxitha yacht profile is based on that of an early pilot cutter and features a combination of traditional lines with a plumb bow and elegant counter stern and modern ability for excellent performance.

The Classic Ketch KAMAXITHA measures 49 meters on deck and 55 meters including the bowsprit.  She has an Alustar hull and tall carbon spars, providing a lightweight yacht able to provide performance along with excellent seakeeping qualities complemented by luxury, comfort and style in the lower communal and accommodation areas.
