Whether for a Caribbean yacht charter or a Mediterranean yacht charter, come and spend a week aboard this award-winning luxury yacht.
Designed by Dubois Naval Architects and built by Fitzroy Yachts of New Zealand, the 44-meter sloop was launched in late 2007. Accommodations for 8 guests are offered in 4 well-appointed staterooms. The master cabin is full-beam and extremely spacious, with king-size bed and ensuite bathroom. Wardrobes with ample clothes storage separate a seating area and the state-of-the-art entertainment system.
Guest cabins include a VIP double cabin and a twin-bedded cabin. Both feature ensuite bathrooms. A fourth cabin is currently used as a gymnasium and features two Pullman berths and a fixed berth, also with ensuite facilities.
The yacht’s interior is best described as “warm, calm contemporary.” The use of oak and walnut with a Wenge fits perfectly with the cool calm colors used in the upholstery and bulkheads. The joinery style is simple, clean and crisp, with tactile countertop nosing incorporating a practical upstand - and a walnut bead for emphasis.
The walnut cornice gives crisp emphasis between bulkhead and deckhead. The oak floor perimeters in wide boards combined with natural cotton carpet in an off-white color reflect the light bulkheads and deckheads. Natural fibers maintain the feeling of calm, while leather, bronze, granite, onyx and slumped glass continue the natural theme throughout.
Amenities include an ondeck Jacuzzi hot tub, satellite television throughout the cabins and salon (living room), and a ship-wide stereo/DVD sound system.
Water sports equipment includes a 6-meter Smuggler tender with Yanmar 165 HP inboard engine/outboard drive, as well as a 3.6-meter Caribe RIB with Yamaha enduro 30 HP outboard engine.
In April 2008, the yacht was selected as the Best Sailing yacht in the 30-meter to 40-meter size range at the World Superyacht Awards in Venice, Italy. The owner was presented with the trophy at a glittering award ceremony held in the Cini Foundation on the island of San Giorgio Maggiore, Venice. Representatives from Fitzroy Yachts, Dubois Naval Architects, and interior design Adam Lay Studio were on hand to witness this ultimate accolade from the luxury yacht industry.
The yacht was praised for both its exterior and internal styling. The vessel carries the largest sail area of any similarly sized yacht and recently competed in the St Barth’s Bucket.
The judges were almost unanimous in selecting this yacht as the winner. This vessel, they felt, with its large sail area and automated sail control; its novel operating system for the daggerboard; the clean lines of the contemporary interior which integrates the cockpit and deckhouse together; and the ability to open large skylights in the latter, would give its owner the widest range of use whatever the weather or sea state.
Other luxurious charter sailing yachts on the market include Mondango, Salute, Tiara, Mirabella V, Selene, and Maltese Falcon.
