Yacht Dubois 101m Sloop: The Dubois 101m Sloop is intended to be an agile sailor despite her length and extensive tank tests have been carried out at the Wolfson Unit in the United Kingdom, probably the world's most experienced research establishment with regard to sailing yachts. The 885' (207m) Haslar tank was used with a 1:17 scale mode (19'3"), which confirmed the designers computer-generated expectations regarding performance at speeds up to 26-kmots in a variety of sea states.
Yacht Dubois 101m Sloop: Built entirely out of aluminum, Design 380 is 400-tonnes lighter than she would be if built from steel, even when the necessary ballast is added. Her mast and all attendant spars and rigging will be built in carbon fibre and innovative sail-handling solutions will require a total crew of just 22. Josep Juanpere Miret of GCA Arquitectes Associats, a Barcelona-based studio which has designed a number of hotels, corporate spaces, and restaurants, created the yacht's interior designs.
Yacht Jongert 3200P: Forward, directly aft of the salon doors, there is additional seating if guests want a break from the 'action', the interior layout is available in three variations. The first features a large saloon, a master stateroom and two guest suites, while the second layout has a smaller saloon and a third guest cabin. The third provides for four guest cabins. A second salon, adjacent to the galley, is also located below decks. The Doug Peterson hull design adds speed and stability to her sleek style and pedigree.
Yacht Miss Tor 40m Schooner: This 131' (40m) steel schooner is currently in-build at the Orucoglu Shipyard in Turkey. With a superstructure more commonly associated with a motor yacht than a sailing schooner, she boats impressive interior volume, with a living space in excess of 1,640sqft (500sqm). On her twin 450hp MAN engines alone she is capable of a 14-knot cruising speed, while her three masts will provide sound sailing performance despite her 165 ton gross tonnage.
Yacht Columbus Sport Hybrid 40m: On the upper deck the relaxing atmosphere is enhanced by two huge sofas, more than 55" deep Romano tells us, chosen from the Diesel collection by Moroso. Being the first in the Columbus range from the mighty Palumbo Group, we look forward to inspecting her fully on launching. In keeping with the environmentally responsible ethos of the lightweight hybrid yacht, Hot Lab has revealed that where possible environmentally sustainable materials will be used in the interior.
Yacht Dubois 101m Sloop: This yacht has 410' mast and 137' boom. The UK design firm Dubois Naval Architects unveiled design proposal for a remarkable 101m sailing sloop in early 2012. By the beginning of 2013, the contract had been sold and construction was due to start as INVICTUS went to print. It is the firm's largest yacht to date, and will be the largest sloop-rigged sailing yacht in the world upon completion.
Yacht Miss Tor 40m Schooner The views over the yacht's wake from here are sure to be impressive. A large bathing platform completes the yacht's amenities, and her designers appear to have left room in the tall transom for a tender garage that could double up as a beach club, although this has not been confirmed by the Orucoglu Shipyard. With several decades experience building leisure yachts, Miss Tor is the brand name under which the yard, part of Orucoglu Holding one of the well-known leading groups of Turkey, produces their yachts.
Yacht Dubois 101m Sloop: Despite a displacement of 2,000-tonnes, she will draw just 13' (4m) with her keel retracted. For blue water cruising, her keel will increase her draft to almost 40' (12.8m), providing additional stability beneath her 410' (125m) mast. To put the height of this vessel's mast in perspective, the Statue of Liberty's torch is 305' (93m) high, while the famous Big Ben clock tower in London stands 315 (96.3m) tall. If that doesn't impress you, consider this: Dubois' 331' (101m) sloop will feature a 137' (42m) mainsail boom - that's longer than the total length of most sailing super yachts.
