KOKOTEA

Dubois Naval Architects shaped KOKOTEA's hull and sail plan to deliver exceptional ocean-going capability in a 40.4-meter package that transforms challenging conditions into exhilarating sailing experiences. Alloy Yachts' 2000 construction demonstrates the builder's mastery of aluminum fabrication, creating a yacht that maintains structural integrity and performance whether navigating trade wind passages or coastal cruising grounds. Her substantial 8.7-meter beam provides the stability platform essential for confident blue-water sailing, while the Dubois-designed hull form cuts through swells with remarkable composure. This engineering foundation translates into a yacht capable of extended ocean crossings without compromising the comfort of her eight guests, who benefit from the generous interior volumes that proper displacement and beam distribution make possible. KOKOTEA's 199-ton displacement speaks to her serious cruising intentions—substantial enough to carry extended provisions, water, and fuel loads while maintaining the motion characteristics that separate genuine ocean sailors from coastal cruisers. Her six-person crew operates systems designed for reliability across thousands of nautical miles, managing sail handling, navigation, and onboard operations with the precision that extended range sailing demands. Redman Whiteley's interior design works within the structural parameters that ocean-going capability requires, creating accommodations that function as well in mid-Atlantic conditions as they do at anchor in protected harbors. Every element aboard reflects the understanding that true luxury in sailing lies not in superficial finishes but in a yacht's ability to carry her guests safely and comfortably to destinations that lesser vessels simply cannot reach.
