Accommodations
The 28.33-meter sailing yacht ABEON, designed by Sparkman & Stephens Inc. and built by the prestigious Royal Huisman shipyard, is a beautiful blend of adventure, comfort, and style. She was built as a classic Blue Water cruiser and in 1984, would have been one of the top yachts of her era. Her owner built her with adventure in mind, and the family completed 6 circumnavigations including trips to the Artic circle where she was locked in ice on three occasions.
She was built to be sailed, with a 33m mast, 22 winches and (when fully crewed) a 550sqm spinnaker. She is a classic sailing yacht, drawing the attention of onlookers in any anchorage she sits. Following an extensive internal refit in 2019, ABEON is now available on the charter market.
