ASGARD | 42.84m (140' 6") | Abeking & Rasmussen | Luxury Sailing Yacht For Sale

From the award-winning and world-renowned shipyard, Abeking & Rasmussen, comes the stunning 42.83m ketch sailing yacht, ASGARD. Built in 1993, she has undergone a couple of refits, most notably in 2014 and 2020. The 2014 refit included a completely new beautiful teak deck, major upgrades to the navcom and electrical systems along with a stunning facelift of the interior by illustrious designer, Rhoades Young. The 2020 refit focused on a complete overhaul of the thursters, the main engine, both generators and the gearbox. ASGARD has a strong cold-moulded mahogany hull that has been built to withstand a whole lifetime. Lighter than fibreglass and cheaper than carbon hull constructions, the cold moulding technique relies heavily on epoxy resin to sheath the entire structure to keep the water out. This unique construction gives this ketch an eye-catching design and an incredible performance, combined with a classic appearance. ASGARD is bound to impress with friends and family alike. Complemented by her classic lines with a modern rigg, she is a proven world explorer with incredible sailing performance. Having won the Superyacht Cup and the Spirit of Tradition Class of the Rolex Maxi Worlds, ASGARD is considered a pedigree superyacht. ASGARD’s achievements are also notable considering the involvement of award-winning designers for both her exterior and interior. The acclaimed designer Bruce King worked with the owner in order to develop and build a ship that could cruise the world but also wow at Regattas—a feat complete considering the corners of the world she has visited from Alaska to the South Pacific and New Zealand, along with the races she has won. This doesn’t detract however from the opulence and comfort of the interior designed by Andrew Winch and Rhoades Young. With a classic look interior, impressive and stylish furnishings polished perfectly with Mahogany wood detailing and flooring throughout, ASGARD can accommodate up to ten guests across five pleasant cabins. The Master Cabin is quite the comfort statement, considering it is full beam, and has an ensuite along with a private seating area. Exclusively for sale with C&N.

All yachts hide their secrets. On the outside we see the hull reflecting the water, gleaming brightwork, clean deck lines and seas of sail. Underneath is a complex story, based on advanced design and structural engineering, and in the centre of every X-Yacht built since 1981, a heart of steel. Walking around the X-Yachts facilities in Haderslev, an ancient and pretty town in southern Denmark, you'll walk into one of the service yard buildings to find a yacht hanging there. No cradle, no supports, no slings, with the keel floating a couple of centimetres off the ground. Tons of yacht seemingly defying gravity. The answer comes back to the steel frame, and the single-point lift which is integral to it. The yacht is perfectly balanced, so hoisting yachts out of the water only requires this attachment point to suspend an X-Yacht from the building's ceiling crane. From the point of view of service this makes things much cleaner. No working around the cradle pads, no having to move the slings to remove antifoul. The hull is completely clear to work on, and keeping the fleet of X-Yachts in top condition is a major part of what the team in Haderslev do. Owners are rightly proud of their X-Yacht and want them looking and performing at their best, year after year.
