About
A true legacy yacht, Persistence is a 33.77m Ron Holland-designed aluminium sloop that redefined performance cruising when she was launched by Sensation Yachts in New Zealand. At the time, she was among the largest and most advanced sailing yachts ever built, placing her firmly in the company of legendary builders such as Alloy Yachts, Royal Huisman, and Nautor’s Swan.
Built to the highest standards of the late 1980s “golden era” of New Zealand yacht building, SY Persistence showcases a rare combination of innovative design, ocean-going performance, and timeless elegance. Her powerful yet refined Ron Holland hull lines, matched with a graceful sloop rig and lightweight aluminium construction, deliver both speed and stability under sail.
Her interior, styled by Winch Design, offers the perfect blend of classic craftsmanship and modern comfort. Fine joinery, warm teak accents, and intelligent use of space create an inviting atmosphere for relaxed cruising or extended offshore adventures.
Sleeps 8 guests in 4 luxurious staterooms, including a full-beam master suite
5 crew in separate quarters ensuring complete privacy for guests
All cabins feature ensuite bathrooms and elegant finishes by Winch Design
Powered by a reliable Lugger diesel engine, Sensation of Auckland cruises comfortably at 10 knots and reaches a top speed of 12 knots.
Her aluminium hull and superstructure offer exceptional strength and durability while maintaining a light displacement for superior sailing performance.
