Fresh off a full-scale refit and rating optimisation at Escale Technique in France (2021–22), KUUJJUAQ is a head-turner with serious racing pedigree. If entered in a world-class event like the Rolex Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race, her spec suggests she’d comfortably place among the top 10 for line honours — an impressive claim for any vessel, let alone one this luxurious.
At 24.45 metres (LOA) with a beam just shy of 5 metres, KUUJJUAQ is long and lean. Her construction — carbon fibre prepreg with Nomex and Corecell foam — is about as high-tech as it gets, delivering strength without unnecessary weight. With a displacement of just under 20 tonnes and a deep 3.95-metre draft, she’s optimised for speed and stability in a range of conditions. Hydraulic rig and deck controls operated via remote make her manageable for short-handed or even single-handed sailing. Whether you’re offshore racing or cruising down the coast, KUUJJUAQ adapts to your pace.
But KUUJJUAQ doesn’t just perform — she impresses. The exterior aesthetic is sleek and purposeful, with composite-finished surfaces and flexi teak-laid cockpits offering a contemporary but practical feel. Inside, the refit transformed the living quarters into something more akin to the pages of Vogue than your average racer-cruiser hybrid. The result is a uniquely sophisticated interior: chic, minimalist, and unmistakably high-end. Clean lines, modern textures, and a sense of space not usually associated with performance yachts elevate the onboard experience to another level.
With six berths plus crew accommodation, KUUJJUAQ welcomes up to 12 guests. The layout supports both social cruising and long-distance racing campaigns, offering the best of both worlds. A 125 hp Yanmar engine provides reliable auxiliary power, while a substantial water capacity (550L) and fuel tanks (425L) support extended trips offshore. There’s also a hot water tank and blackwater holding tank — important details for liveaboard comfort.
The technical elements are top-tier. The CE Category A rating confirms her capability for extended offshore passages, while the full suite of hydraulic systems speaks to a design engineered for sailors who know their way around a deck. The control systems allow the helmsperson to fine-tune rig and sail trim from anywhere onboard, eliminating unnecessary labour while enhancing performance. This integration of smart sailing technology is what makes KUUJJUAQ equally suitable for adrenaline-filled racing or effortless island-hopping.
However, it’s the yacht’s unique positioning on the market that really sets her apart. As the owner is open to cryptocurrency transactions, KUUJJUAQ becomes an outlier in the brokerage world — a rare intersection of traditional yachting prestige and next-generation finance. This makes her especially appealing to a new generation of buyers looking to make bold lifestyle moves with a digital-first mindset.
Whether you’re a seasoned offshore campaigner or a modern-day explorer looking to blend racing excitement with luxurious living, KUUJJUAQ is an extraordinary opportunity. She’s not just a yacht — she’s a statement. A blend of speed and comfort, elegance and efficiency, old-world craftsmanship and future-forward thinking.
Represented exclusively by MCD Boutique Yacht Brokerage in New Zealand and Australia, KUUJJUAQ is now on the market and ready for her next chapter. For those looking to stand out in the marina and on the start line — and who perhaps want to pay with Bitcoin rather than bank wires — this Marten 72 is one to watch.
