This Sherpa 60 is already the 22nd unit of this successful model. Arcadia has designed the 18.67-metre yacht with a huge aft deck and a wide range of uses in mind. The model will also be on display at the Cannes Yachting Festival.

At just under 19 metres in length, the Sherpa 60 incorporates everything that matters to the shipyard in the Gulf of Naples: spacious rooms, ample storage space and seamless transitions between indoor and outdoor areas. Added to this is a design that puts people at the centre. The current Arcadia has three cabins and a 50-square-metre aft deck.

Arcadia Sherpa 60: plenty of storage space in the main compartment

The Sherpa 60’s garage has a capacity of around 23,000 litres, which means there is plenty of space for a tender, a jet ski, water toys and other equipment. A large hydraulic door provides access, whilst a crane hoists the vessels into the water. This design makes the Arcadia ideal for cruising or day trips, right through to use as an escort vessel.

Uske was born just outside Volkswagen in 1970 and tested various small boats with sails through her boyfriend (now husband 😊) on a quarry pond. Her studies in Kiel took her to the Baltic Sea with boats of all kinds and eventually to a regatta from Hong Kong to Mauritius via the Academic Sailing Club. Her teacher training ended at the Burda School of Journalism in Munich instead of in the classroom and finally at Boote Exclusiv. After a long break and various stories about house building, she returned to Delius Klasing and has been filling the magazine with long stories about large ships ever since. A family-owned H-boat was quickly sold again as the mother realized that sailing with two small children was neither relaxing nor fun.
