M/Y BROOKE “KATJA”

The motor yacht KATJA, measuring 14.70 meters in length, was built in wood in 1929 by the English shipyard Brooke in Lowestoft, based on the design by H. Parker. She was one of the over 800 private boats that contributed to the historic Operation Dynamo, the massive naval evacuation from the beaches of Dunkirk that repatriated to England hundreds of thousands of British soldiers surrounded by the German army in the WWII; she has remained intact to this day thanks to the care of the four owners who have succeeded each other over the decades, two English and two Italian. She was recently refitted and is in excellent condition. In 1992, during the vintage boat gathering in the Principality of Monaco, Katja achieved a score of 156/210, earning it the first place in the ASDEC evaluation. VIEW BROCHURE
