Omikron Yachts OT60
As the first production model by Omikron Yachts, the new brand of Olympic Marine’s storied shipyard on the Aegean, the OT60 heralds a renewed return to the traditional Eastern Mediterranean seagoing style. The colossal Greek marina launched the Omikron Yachts brand with the intention to realize a 60-foot “sailing yacht without sails” to combine the best of both worlds – a peaceful pace and abundant space. Compact, quiet, and efficient engines propel the OT60’s Eco-Cruise hull, made to measure by Juan Kouyoumdjian to enhance the yacht’s seakeeping and efficiency for Mediterranean island hopping.
