The HOLLD 76 emerges from Dutch innovation as a full carbon sailing catamaran engineered without compromise. At 23.32 metres long with a beam of 10.2 metres, this vessel balances performance with the comfort demanded by families who prefer to cruise far from shore with minimal crew.

Carbon fibre defines every element of the build. The hull, superstructure and interior all benefit from the material’s exceptional strength to weight ratio, which translates to the yacht’s headline figures: a shallow draft of just 1.45 metres and speeds beyond 25 knots when the sails fill. These qualities liberate the owner from the constraints that anchor heavier yachts to deeper waters and busier seasons.

Inside, designer Linda Chevallerau has orchestrated an open plan living arrangement that erases the sense of compartments. Carbon fibre extends to the furniture itself, maintaining structural integrity while reducing weight throughout. The semi custom approach allows owners to refine layouts and finishes to their own vision, rather than inheriting a fixed interior scheme.

The deck spaces reward time spent outside. Extensive outdoor living areas across the broad beam invite lounging, entertaining and the simple rhythm of days at anchor. The contemporary soft furnishings visible in the images, paired with shaded helm areas and unobstructed sight lines, suggest a yacht designed around the pleasure of being aboard rather than the performance of reaching the next port.
