Three distinct cockpit areas create dedicated spaces for steering, socialising and relaxation, while wide, unobstructed side decks allow safe movement throughout the yacht. The spacious, protected cockpit is designed for comfortable sailing even with a reduced crew.

Clean deck lines and generous relaxation areas complete the yacht's elegant exterior design.

Careful attention to ergonomics, lightweight materials and weight distribution ensures that the interior delivers refined onboard living while preserving the yacht's performance-oriented character.
