'Qilak' an Owen Clarke 66' aluminium lifting keel, sailing expedition yacht - launched in 2018 at KM Yacht-Builders Holland is available for sale and handover at the end of this seasons' charter commitments. Designed and built specifically for commercial charter, expeditions for scientists, adventurers, as well as a 'go anywhere' explorer yacht for groups and private use especially in the high latitudes of the Arctic and Antarctic.  'Qilak' can transit the North-West Passage, over-wintering in high latitudes and able to enter shallow bays/harbours with her lifting keel and, combined with twin rudders enables her to layup safely in boatyards in remote parts of the world. 

Water, fuel, storage, heating and power generation can be a matter of survival, not just comfort when over-wintering and so a good deal of thought and design work went into these aspects. The main engine and generators do not rely on a raw sea water supply that can be blocked by ice but are instead cooled using an internal Glycol filled heat exchanger. The diesel tanks are built into the structure of the yacht and separated from the outside hull plating, effectively, a double bottom.




This is the pilot house interior of the aluminium lifting keel, sailing expedition yacht Qilak. Qilak was launched in 2018 at KM Yacht-Builders is available for sale through OC Performance Yacht Brokers.

Access to the main pilot house and interior is via the exterior cuddy, through a watertight door to the two internal raised watch-keeping positions port and starboard. Moving forward there is a demountable table/seating system that allows this area to be used for either scientific work, sheltered viewing (through the expansive triple glazed windows) or as a secondary lounge dining area.

The main interior space is accessed through the pilot house from a further internal watertight door. The main accommodation is laid out and consists of the crew quarters aft, a twin cabin to port and a skippers/owners cabin to starboard with a convertible double berth. A further workshop/cabin with space available for a fourth crew/guide/ice pilot. Guest accommodation is forward and consists of two double berth cabins (convertible to triple) and two twin berth cabins, each with plentiful storage, a computer desk and vanity unit. Amidships, the main saloon is capable of seating twelve for meals or for briefings and reviewing the days' media on a large flat monitor screen. The interior is warm comfortable and functional and includes extensive use of eco-sustainable bamboo, soft neutral tone fabrics creating a modern contemporary feel. The main galley is situated to port and is adjacent to the saloon and includes, larder, utensils/crockery storage, refrigeration, utilities space, stainless steel work surfaces and integral double sink, electric 4 x ring hob and oven, and a foldaway worktop extension.

'Qilak' has two showers, two heads in self contained compartments and is surely one of the few yachts of this size with a separate urinal and a sauna for two. There is dedicated tender stowage in the stern garage for a 2.85m Williams inflatable jet tender (not included in inventory) and further stowage in the cavernous fitted out forepeak for a second large rollaway Zodiac military spec inflatable and all the essential equipment needed for sailing and exploring remote locations around the world.

This is one of the two convertible twin/double cabins in the interior of Qilak designed for charter guests. Designed by Owen Clarke Design, Qilak was  built specifically for commercial charter, expeditions for scientists, as well as a 'go anywhere' blue water explorer yacht.
