hetairos superyacht

This 218ft ketch is the biggest yacht Baltic have launched to date and in many ways she remains in a class of her own.

Despite her classic looks with a plumb stem and sweeping counter, she is a thoroughly modern high performance yacht taking full advantage of Baltic’s carbon composite building and engineering expertise.

Apart from her powerful sailplan, Hetairos sports not only a lifting keel, but also an unusual lifting rudder enabling her to fulfill her potential while sailing and access shallower anchorages and harbours when at rest.

She has proved to be a force to be reckoned with on the race course, but is just a capable as a world girdling cruising yacht capable of independent sailing for long periods of time.

Hetairos was one of the most challenging projects undertaken by Baltic Yachts and she remains one of the most outstanding sailing superyachts in the world.

Hetairos was delivered in 2011.

Hetairos

About the Project

The 197ft (66.7m) S.Y. Hetairos has set many new benchmarks in superyacht construction. It is, for example, the largest yacht that has been built from carbon-fibre composite to date.

The owner’s brief was to build the largest and fastest yacht that would still be capable of crossing the Panama Canal, and still have that classic look. However she is capable of speeds to rival many racing yachts, achieving a top speed of 25.7 knots during an Atlantic crossing.

She sports a full set of ECsix rigging.

There is a very small window for clearance below the Panama Bridge and because of this, the equipment on top of both the main and mizzen masts, such as aerials have been designed to be removable.

Designer: Dykstra & Partners/Reichel Pugh LOA: 197ft Mast Height: 62.5 metres

Superyacht Challenge Antigua : "Hetairos" crew in record-breaking mood: A giant in her element

Superyacht Challenge Antigua: "Hetairos" crew in record-breaking mood: A giant in her element

Otto Happel's "Hetairos" has started the Superyacht Challenge Antigua with a new round Antigua record. The 40-strong crew used the start of the racing series in the Caribbean for an impressive performance. The 218-foot Dykstra/Reichel-Pugh ketch, built by Baltic Yachts in 2011, completed the almost 50 nautical mile course in just 3 hours, 46 minutes and 8 seconds. This was not only enough to win the "Line Honours", but also the overall ORCsi victory. In the handicap classification, the performance resulted in a narrow five-minute lead over the 121-foot-long Dykstra slup "Action". The "Hetairos" team led by skipper Graham Newton and tactician Cameron Appleton improved on the previous record set in 2018 by the Volvo 70 "Warrior" by 9 minutes and 30 seconds in the race around the Caribbean island surrounded by coral reefs. The 180-foot Dykstra ketch "Kamaxitha" sailed to the podium in third place in the ORC.

  "Hetairos" tactician Cameron Appleton at the superyacht dock in Antigua

"It's a very special boat"

"The conditions were a little more moderate than we thought," said "Heitairos" tactician Cameron Appleton after returning to the superyacht dock in Antigua. "The boats ahead of us had a few knots more wind at the start. We had up to 18, 19 knots on the clock. We sailed quite conservatively for most of the race, partly because we wanted to conserve our equipment for the series. The plan was to carry out the manoeuvres cleanly and well. The 'Hetairos' team did an excellent job and the boss was great at the helm. The boat is quite a machine. As long as you treat her well and plan ahead, go into the manoeuvres with a good philosophy, everything goes according to plan. It's a challenge because the loads are big and you have to think a lot. You have to be ahead of the game at all times. A boat like 'Hetairos' deserves immense respect - it's a very special boat."

  The "Hetairos" record trip was achieved with more than 40 (!) crew members

According to the motto "length runs", the "Hetairos" team was able to keep the almost 100-foot smaller slup "Action" with double Olympic champion Shirley Robertson and Volvo Ocean Race winner Ian Walker on board at bay. Walker was nevertheless satisfied with his team's performance and said shortly after the start of the eleventh Superyacht Challenge Antigua: "There have been a few crew changes on 'Action' since our last start here two years ago. Today was a good opportunity to test everything and check the boat thoroughly. It was a bit rough up above the island, where we had gusts of up to 23 knots. So it was good that everything stayed together. We sailed really cleanly and the boat ran well. Sailing a cruising superyacht in regatta mode means action. So we have to minimise the manoeuvres, which means you have to compromise on the ideal strategy. We had a really nice day of racing and the owner was steering 95 per cent of the time - a fantastic start for all of us and the boat."

Superyacht Hetairos successfully completes first sea trials

The Baltic Yachts built 66.7m sailing yacht Hetairos (project name Panamax) has successfully completed her first sea trials.

Dykstra Naval Architects were part of an international team of experts that came together to make this special project a success. Her design features a plumb bow, long bowsprit, a traditional sheer line and long overhang. A lot of attention has been given to the styling and design of the classic deck joinery,  fabricated with the latest low weight and high tech materials. Similarly, for her interior, Rhoades Young Design undertook extensive research in order to design a ‘ground breaking’ light-weight interior.

Hetairos is planning to take part in various international regattas and events. The combination of comfortable cruising and high performance racing make her one to look out for on the water.
