DRUMBEAT
DRUMBEAT is an exceptional 53-metre sailing yacht, built in aluminium by the renowned New Zealand shipyard Alloy Yachts, and designed by the acclaimed Dubois Naval Architects. A true bluewater ketch, DRUMBEAT combines timeless elegance, impressive sailing performance and superior comfort. Now for sale and also available for charter, she represents a rare opportunity for discerning buyers looking to enjoy both private cruising and proven charter income.
Originally launched in 2002, DRUMBEAT has undergone extensive refits and upgrades over the years, with major works completed in 2022 and further mechanical overhauls in 2024. Her main Caterpillar 3412E engine and Northern Lights generators have been fully rebuilt, ensuring long-term operational reliability. With an outstanding 8,000-nautical-mile range, she is designed for serious offshore adventures.
Under sail, DRUMBEAT is a joy to helm. With carbon Marten Spars masts and booms, a Panamax rig and a full set of North Sails (2019–2023), she regularly achieves 16 to 17 knots and can reach up to 23 knots in ideal conditions. Her teak decks, sheltered cockpit with fixed awning, and spacious flybridge create superb open-air lounging and dining spaces.
Inside, the yacht is warm and light-filled. The 360° panoramic saloon leads to five guest cabins accommodating up to 11 guests, including a full-beam master suite, two VIP doubles and two twin cabins (one with Pullman). Her crew of 10 professionals ensures impeccable service. For entertainment and exploration, DRUMBEAT is equipped with an impressive fleet of tenders and water toys.
Thanks to her commercial registration (MCA – Cayman Islands) and solid charter history, DRUMBEAT is ideally positioned for a new owner seeking both luxurious private use and charter revenue potential.
