The sun’s rim dips; the stars rush out: At one stride comes the dark; With far-heard whisper, o’er the sea . . . .
“One thing is for certain: Whisper will become a timeless classic that has the very best of everything, and is a credit to her creators. “ — Boat International
“Anyone who doubts Whisper’s place among the great yachts need only spend 15 minutes at the helm while she sails herself on a reach at 12 knots.”

Spectacular
A celebration of exquisite taste and refined privilege, this magnificent vessel was conceived, designed, and built by true masters. Their singular achievement is hailed by all who see her.
The huge mainsail towers above, taut and full, and Whisper surges
forward, tossing the waves aside.
The captain and crew handle her with skill and confidence, and she responds with
exhilarating speed.
You want this to go on forever.

Refined
With rich teak panels, intricate inlays, and delicate carvings handcrafted by gifted Dutch artisans, Whisper is a noble descendent of the classic gentleman’s yacht. The airy spaciousness and unlimited comforts, however, could only be found on a superb vessel of the twenty-first century.
A few steps down the staircase, the handsome saloon welcomes you to relax in the ample
settees.
After cocktails on deck, you gather at the candle-lit dining table for a
superb dinner
featuring all your
special requests. The finest foods and beverages and impeccable
service
complete the perfection.
