W
hitehawk will be your magnificent steed as the
winds fill her towering sails. She will be your sublime, five-star suite in serene and private anchorages. She will be your enviable address in chic ports of call. And she will be your perfect escape every day and night of your sojourn on board. With clipper bow and exquisite lines, Whitehawk is the renaissance of a classic design originally drawn by the revered naval architect L. Francis Herreshoff. Contemporary master Bruce King, inspired by Herreshoff ’s legendary racing yacht Ticonderoga, envisioned a larger, grander sister ship with all the advantages of a modern vessel, and Whitehawk was born. You will be proud to be aboard such a famous yacht. Wherever she goes, connoisseurs pay homage to her quintessential lineage, spectacular performance, and regal beauty.
There are many ships on the sea. But there is just one Whitehawk.
Fine dining is a highlight of the Whitehawk experience.
T
hroughout her glowing interior, Whitehawk’s
distinguished heritage is palpable. It sparkles in the saloon’s polished joinerywork, leaded-glass cabinets, and wonderful wood-burning fireplace. You’ll want to entertain guests formally here, or share a casual drink at the marble-topped bar, or simply settle into the big sofas, put your feet up, and listen to music or watch a film on the flat-screen TV. Overhead, shafts of sun filter through a large, handcrafted octagonal skylight. At night, as candles flicker at the finely laid table and you linger over a delectable dinner, the skylight becomes your personal window to the stars.
