Adrian McCourt of London-based yacht manager and broker Watkins Superyachts Ltd has sent us the first images of the newly launched 32.4 metre Ron Holland-designed superyacht, the Kestrel 106, built at the Aganlar Boatyard in Bodrum, Turkey.
The yacht is a delightful fast-cruising yacht, that offers accommodation for up to 10 guests in a full beam master cabin, a large double VIP cabin and two further cabins with additional pullman berths.
Managing Director of Watkins Superyachts, Captain Adrian McCourt, says: "The boat handles beautifully and we’re all so delighted! As a small bonus, a small group of dolphins joined the guys for the seatrail giving the traditional sailor’s good luck blessing for this lovely boat!".
She will be delivered soon, and is for sale with Watkins Superyachts.
