Kraken Yachts 66

The Kraken 66 offers a high level of standard equipment and a comprehensive list of optional extras and bespoke accessories that allow for any degree of personalisation to create a tailor-made, decadent feel. This level of specification is virtually unobtainable in any other vessel of this size and price.

Zero Keel

The Zero Keel™ was developed to address what we at Kraken Yachts believe to be a fundamental flaw in the construction of a blue water cruising yacht: namely the use of a separate bolted-on keel. All Kraken Yachts have ‘Zero’ keel bolts, which means ‘Zero’ chance of falling off!

It has long been accepted that a cruising yacht needs a long keel rather than a short one to gain good directional stability. And all Kraken yachts are designed this way. But we do not believe that the keel should be bolted onto the hull - because it can (and too often does) come off.

There is nothing new about integral keels on sailing yachts. However, to gain the security of knowing your keel cannot come off and to achieve the benefits of both the improved stability and the hydrodynamic performance derived from a bulb keel, we have designed and engineered a lead bulb shaped keel that is fully integral with the hull. And that is new.

The Zero Keel™ offers the only keel solution that gives a sailor total confidence in its safety and that also offers the benefits of the increased directional and lateral stability that come with a modern bulbed keel.
