BEOTHUK was designed by Vripack and built by Kuipers Shipyard Woudsend in the Netherlands.  The design was carefully reviewed and included tank testing, wave pattern analysis, intact stability analysis and dynamic stability analysis in various load conditions. The Owner that built BEOTHUK had previously built an 84 foot Vripack Kuipers and had extensive input in BEOTHUK’s design and contruction.

BEOTHUK embodies the spirit of an expedition yacht—rugged, reliable, and ready to venture into the world’s most remote waters. But to call her merely "rugged" would overlook her strikingly elegant design and luxurious appointments that place her among the finest yachts on the sea today.

Crafted with impeccable attention to detail, BEOTHUK showcases top-tier finishes—from polished stainless steel and precision joinery to marble inlays and exquisite granite surfaces. Her advanced lighting and entertainment systems ensure that comfort and style accompany every journey.

Accommodations include three well-appointed staterooms for six guests, along with two crew cabins. Her expansive layout features a generous main salon, a formal dining area, a protected aft deck, a commanding pilothouse, and an inviting upper skylounge.

Designed for true long-range cruising, BEOTHUK is a full-displacement vessel carrying 11,000 gallons of fuel and powered by twin C18 DITA Caterpillar engines.

BEOTHUK is a rare combination of expedition capability and refined luxury—an extraordinary yacht in both function and form and has been exceptionally maintained throughout her life.  Opportunities to own a vessel of this caliber are few and far between.
