ASKARI is a 2026 65’ Askari Power Yacht and the first of her kind to join the fleet—a custom-built aluminum long-range cruiser designed by Du Toit Yacht Design and crafted in Cape Town, South Africa. Created for guests who want to explore the Virgin Islands in distinctive style, she pairs substantial onboard volume with a bright, contemporary interior, panoramic views, and an easy connection between indoor and outdoor living spaces. Her purpose-built design gives ASKARI a striking presence on the water while still feeling warm, polished, and inviting throughout.
Accommodating up to 6 guests, ASKARI features 3 guest cabins with 1 king, 1 queen, and 1 double, each with a private ensuite bathroom. Generous living areas, thoughtful design, and a highly customized interior make her feel exceptionally spacious, while her long-range cruising capability and refined comfort create an ideal platform for discovering quiet bays, island anchorages, and the beauty of the Virgin Islands.
