Diva is a truly distinctive yawl, blending classic elegance and high-performance. A true rarity on the market, it captivates with its sleek silhouette as well as its ability to dominate the regattas where it competes, consistently winning the greatest events. But Diva is distinguished not only by its track record: its perfectly balanced hull gives it remarkable glide, offering both speed and the pleasure of sailing, whether cruising or racing.

Under the French flag since 2020 and owned by its third owner, the Yawl Diva has a remarkable history. Originally built for a German owner who kept it for over 30 years, it then belonged to a Dutch owner from 2002, who had it maintained annually at the former Royal Huysmans shipyard in Vollenhoven. Initially equipped for cruising, Diva has been progressively outfitted for classic racing by its current owner, allowing a dual cruising/regatta configuration. In the JCH rating, it has distinguished itself by winning all the major events it has participated in, such as the Regatta of the Zebras, the Regatta Hustle, the Emeraude Classic Cup in Saint-Malo, and the Sails of the Citadel in Port-Louis. Since its launch, Diva has benefited from systematic winter storage under a hangar to ensure optimal maintenance.
