Cyclos III
Silhouette and Seascape
Cyclos III, a 42.36-metre sailing yacht from Royal Huisman, was launched in 1990 as a high-performance luxury cruiser. With an aluminium hull and superstructure, she combines strength with a lightweight design that contributes to her impressive 13-knot top speed. Crafted by Ron Holland with an interior by Andrew Winch, Cyclos III has twice circumnavigated the globe, showcasing her endurance and engineering quality. After a major 2017 refit, which included a fresh teak deck and advanced furling systems, this yacht remains a benchmark in innovative design and quality.
