  • Facts & Figures
  • Books & Articles

Adèle is arguably one of the most beautiful sailing yachts that ever crossed the oceans. She was my dream and became my reality together with Jennifer, my wife and the Captain and crew. Jennifer and I spent two years aboard her from her launch in 2005 until we sold her in 2007. During that time we sailed the corresponding distance of one Atlantic crossing each month of those 24 months. We went north of Svalbard into the pack ice and south to Antarctica and crossed the South Pacific in between.

I have one tab that describes Facts and Figures about Adèle . Then I am telling about our voyages in five different galleries. They describe our sailings in chronological order from the launch in Holland to the final sailing in the Caribbean in May 2007.

During the first part we sailed north from Holland to Svalbard and further north and then turned south to Sweden. There in Aug 2005 Jennifer and I got married and we christened Adèle. The wedding and christening of Adèle are described in two Family slide shows, see those tabs.

Then we continue with the second chapter (gallery) describing our sailing from Sweden after the Christening to the Med and across to the Caribbean and down to Panama. The third leg covers the South Pacific from Galapagos to Polynesia and Melanesia and finally New Zealand.

The fourth gallery, Southbound, follows Adèle on her voyage from Auckland around Cape Horn and then further south to Antarctica. Then we turn north to the Falklands and finally South Georgia. Finally the fifth gallery tells the final chapter in our ownership. We sailed to Brazil and from Brazil back to the Caribbean.

Quick Enquiry

“Sailing yachts have long combined nature with manmade beauty.” - ED DUBOIS “I think that one of the best things about Vitters is a conscious effort to make each yacht better than the last one. And better, you can have a long discussion about what better means, but better really in terms of quality. They have achieved that. And the finished project always batted my expectation.” - NIGEL INGRAM

Adele - 55m sailing yacht

VITTERS' 3RD-LARGEST YACHT

ADELE is an impressive 54.6m sailing yacht. She was built in the Netherlands by Vitters and completed and delivered in 2005. Five years after planning started. She was last sold in 2007 and had a 10 million refit in 2016 by Royal Huisman’s Huisfit division in the Netherlands. 

Adele is among the top 10 per cent by LOA in the world. She is one of 37 sail yachts in the size range of 50-55 m, and the 3rd-largest yacht built by Vitters. As for the largest yachts in the world rankings, Adele is positioned at 685th. 

Hoek Design Naval Architects is responsible for her sophisticated design, (the exterior design, naval architecture, plus interior design), along with 38 other yachts. She has 2 tall masts that allow for many combinations of sailing, and also make her well stabilized , to tackle all winds.  

Adele is one of the fastest sailing yachts in the world. She has a top speed of 13.5 kn, and a cruising speed of 11.0 kn. At a cruising speed of 10.0 kn she boasts a max range of 6500.0 nm, powered by a single Caterpillar 3412E DITA diesel engine. Her gross tonnage is 338.31 GT with a beam of 9.5 m and a draft of 4.8m. Adele can carry 23,400 liters of fuel, plus 8,000 liters of water on board. 

Her accommodation allows for 10-12 guests in 5 cabins, (1 owners suite, 2 double and 2 twin cabins), plus a crew of 8 who can take care of the guest's every need, ensuring complete comfort on board.  

Adele currently sails under the flag of the Cayman Islands, which is the second most popular flag state when it comes to superyachts, with 1,249 registered yachts in total.  

This luxury superyacht was designed for world exploration and is known to be an active superyacht. We believe that the current owner and his wife use her extensively, and sail for 2 months of the year somewhere around America and 2 months of the year in the Bahamas. Here on the left she was spotted in the UK during September 2021. 

Her original owner was Jan-Erik Österlund, who in 2008, launched a book called Exploring with Adèle after sailing her to more adventurous places in the world, where normal yachts wouldn’t explore. According to Jan-Erik and his wife, their most memorable journey was their visit to Antarctica. 

Adele has won 3 prestigious awards, which is a stunning result and a credit to the designer, owner, build team and everyone involved. The awards are as follows:  

The international Superyacht Society Award: "Best Sailing Yacht Over 36 metres" 

ShowBoats International Awards: "Best Sailing Yacht over 40 metres" 

World Superyacht Awards: "Best Sailing Superyacht 51 metres and above"

Adèle shines bright like a Diamond in Norway...

... and is the light in the beautiful sea [...] - thanks to huisfit, the refit division of royal huisman is adèle like new..

Adèle pictures in Norway: Taken by the crew. Pictures at the yard: Priska van der Meulen

This yacht is one of the most beautiful sailing yachts designed by Hoek Design Naval Architects . The original builder was Vitters in 2005. Royal Huisman’s refit division Huisfit gave her a new dress, and she shines bright again – better than new through the upgrades.

The crew took some awesome pictures during the journey in Norway. The owners of Adèle are very satisfied with Huisfit’s work.

After the journey in Norway, she will be back in the Netherlands, then to Central America, the Panama Canal, South Pacific, and beyond (according to the captain).

Adele Yacht by Vitters

Adèle is a real blue water cruising yacht. Her first owner was Jan-Erik Osterlund who traveled two years around the world with her. He published pictures from the journeys on his website . Also, the current owners use her extensively.

“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and to me, it lies in the classic lines of yachts like the old Prince of Wales’s Britannia and Kaiser Wilhelm’s Meteor, or the America’s Cup yachts of the thirties – long overhangs, low freeboards, a flush deck and tall masts.” – Jan-Erik Österlund

In addition to the Norway pictures here some impressions when she came out of the shed, taken by Priska van der Meulen:

List of done work

  • Service and complete overhaul of propulsion, generators, thrusters and other onboard systems
  • Climate control upgrades, including new chiller, fan coils and ducting
  • Replacement of batteries
  • Exchanging existent lighting system to LEDs
  • Upgrade and replacement of electronics for navigation, communication, alarm & monitoring
  • Repairs of the interior
  • New teak deck and partial replacement of the cap rails
  • Servicing of hatches, winches and various deck equipment
  • Painting of the inside of the hull and parts of the interior

Andre Engblom, the captain since her launch, acted as owner's representative during the refit in Vollenhove and answered some questions.

How important is it to program refit work well in advance to ensure the best outcome?

We started planning 18 months in advance. This pre-planning process was really important from the perspective of ensuring accurate project management to avoid conflict between the various trades. This, in turn, allows for seamless progression through the work list with optimal efficiency. The input of Taco Zwarts [ed. the owner’s project manager during the Huisfit period] leading up to the refit was invaluable, both technically and financially.

Why the decision to refit in Holland as opposed to the Med?

In one word: quality. The Dutch are renowned as boat builders and Royal Huisman is the epitome of a Dutch shipyard. The owners were proud to bring the boat to a yard with such a prestigious history and reputation.

What was the experience of your crew during their time in Vollenhove?

It was a rather damp winter, but the crew’s time in Holland was pleasurable thanks to the hospitality and great family atmosphere in the village, which carried over to the shipyard. Great friendships were made that will last well into the future.

In terms of determining the refit schedule and work list, how significant was it that you were involved in the original build of the yacht?

Being involved in the original build at Vitters meant that both Taco and I had in-depth knowledge of Adèle right down to her foundations. This meant that together with Huisfit we had a winning combination; we brought vital past knowledge that Royal Huisman could draw on to carry Adèle elegantly into her future travels.

Adele Yachts announces 45m superyacht series in collaboration with Hot Lab

Related articles.

Fledgling Turkish shipyard Adele Yachts has announced a new, 45-metre superyacht series in collaboration with Milan-based studio Hot Lab . The first and second hull are already under construction in Tuzla, Turkey, with IYC appointed as exclusive representative for the series. Delivery is scheduled for Q3 of 2025.

Key numbers include a volume of 499GT, a 4.1-metre draft and a maximum speed of 13 knots. The semi-displacement hull will be built in steel and RINA classed.

Accommodation is across five cabins, including an owner's cabin with a daybed, armchairs and a separate office space. There are further quarters for 11 crew.

Interior renderings reveal a clean, contemporary aesthetic by Hot Lab, who have opted for cooler woods and a colour palette of cream, grey and light blue. Floor-to-ceiling windows provide ample natural light, particularly in the main saloon which is arranged with twin sofa seating and a formal dining area aft.

Meanwhile, the sundeck is arranged with a Jacuzzi flanked by sunpads, a dry bar and twin sunloungers, with the overhang providing partial shade to an al fresco dining table on the upper deck. Forward of the upper deck is a fixed sunpad lounge and coffee table.

Other leisure highlights include a swim platform with sunpads and storage for a five-metre tender and two Jet Skis.

Exiled russian oligarch’s 257’ superyacht amaryllis seen towed through palm beach.

The Amaryllis being towed past the former mansion of Henry Flagler, built in 1902

By John Jannarone and Alan Hatfield

The 257’ superyacht Amaryllis apparently owned by exiled Russian oligarch Andrey Borodin was towed past Palm Beach, FL on Friday morning, according to a visual account by CorpGov .

The yacht, whose owner is frequently cited as Mr. Borodin by enthusiast publications, moved slowly through the Lake Worth lagoon where bridges were raised for its passage. A towboat with flashing lights about 150 feet ahead pulled the Amaryllis , built by German shipyard Abeking & Rasmussen in 2011.

While CorpGov could not officially confirm Mr. Borodin as the owner of the vessel, his wife, socialite Tatiana Korsakova, has posted dozens of Instagram photos and videos aboard the Amaryllis. A yacht broker interviewed by CorpGov confirmed that Ms. Korsakova is indeed aboard the Amaryllis in the photos and videos.

The sighting comes as billions of dollars in Russian-owned yachts have been seized around the world as a result of international sanctions. CNN has published an extensive list of seized vessels, which were taken in harbor cities including Mallorca, Spain and London.

However, it is unclear if the Amaryllis was being seized or voluntarily towed. Very large yachts often choose to be towed because bridges are required to raise for them, according to the yacht broker.

The former Bank of Moscow chief was granted political asylum in the UK in February 2013 after fleeing what he alleged to be politically-motivated fraud and embezzlement charges. Mr. Borodin would go on to be tried and convicted in abstentia in Russian Court in 2018, but not before managing to enlist a number of prominent American lawmakers to lobby Washington for a U.S. visa. Despite Russian extradition requests to the UK government, Borodin’s controversial attempts to make large donations to the NHS, and the uncovering of an assassination plot against his life, the fugitive banker remains overseas, having been granted access to his Swiss bank accounts and having made several notable London real estate purchases during his time in exile.

Mr. Borodin is widely listed as a billionaire, but his total wealth remains difficult to confirm accurately, with the governments of Switzerland and the Bahamas having been asked to help the Russian government in its legal case. In 2012, Borodin purchased the UK’s then-most expensive home, an 80-hectare 18th-century estate in Oxfordshire, for upwards of $217 million. In 2017 he was granted access to personal Swiss accounts holding a reported $378 million. The Amaryllis was purchased for a reported $120 million.

Mr. Borodin did not immediately respond to an emailed query from CorpGov , while the FBI declined to comment. An emailed query to The Department of Homeland Security was not returned.
