SV Nilaya

SV Nilaya is a 16-metre long steel yacht built in Auckland, New Zealand in 1997. The vessel is a custom steel pilothouse yacht built to superyacht standards. "SV Nilaya's" systems are 'works of art' and were designed for ease of maintenance and operation. In 2012, it was believed to be sailing towards Antarctica crewed by Jarle Andhøy and Samuel Massie, among others. Their intention appears to be to investigate the disappearance of their yacht Beserk II, which sank in February 2011 killing three people. New Zealand authorities are searching for the yacht, as there is no authority issued for the journey to Antarctica.
