Initially seduced by our famous Ourson Rapide 60', our Eastern-European client chose us to design a yacht really tailored to his wishes, to fulfill his program of long, short-handed (one couple with a child), off-shore cruises. Being an accomplished racer, he wanted a fast boat, both for the pleasure of speed and for that of the additionnal time at stopovers, but comfortable and especially safe for children.
For improved reliability and lighter weight, the boat will feature a fixed keel, and will dispense with any hydraulics, heating and air conditioning. Its classical rig with 2 sets of spreaders is made of carbon fiber, as is the boat itself, leading to an overall empty displacement of less than 14 tons. Its chined hull provides power and inner space. Its deck layout is designed with simplicity and safety in mind, with a moderately large cockpit and a removable aft beam. The mainsheet is attached to an overhead arch, freeing the cockpit from its dangerous movements.
