This is Cacique
With a name that meant ‘chief’ in the Taino language of the indigenous tribes of the eastern Caribbean, Cacique’s raised pilothouse design had more in common with earlier yachts like Blackhawk and Prosit II from the 1970s than she did with her early 1980s sisters. Although the interior was designed by De Voogt, the 37.49-metre yacht was manufactured by Struik and Hammerslag. This signalled how complex the interiors were becoming during this period. She paved the way for a new Cacique, a much larger 55.10-metre launched in 1986.
