Perini Navi has announced
beginning construction on the first of a line of fast, aluminum 125-footers
designed by Philippe Briand. The Italian builder says the owner of the first
hull has insisted on outstanding performance, especially when sailing upwind. At
140 tons, the vessel is of medium to light displacement. Waterline length was
stretched to the maximum, leaving her stem almost vertical. She has a
high-aspect-ratio sail plan to enhance her performance upwind. She is also
equipped with a lifting keel.
Her interior is by Perini and is being constructed of
lightweight materials. The design features a spacious master suite, a large deck
salon and, depending on the version, two to four guest cabins.
The aesthetic roof design accentuates the yacht’s racy
character. It houses an extremely spacious and well-sheltered cockpit. The
expansive aft deck houses a five-meter tender.
The launch of Hull No. 1 is scheduled for June 2008.
