Perini Navi delivers 50-meter aluminum ketch
This yacht is the second vessel in the new 50 meter aluminum series and was launched on April 2nd, 2012. Hull C.2173, was designed by Perini Navi’s in-house naval architects in collaboration with New Zealander Ron Holland. The ketch sail plan, designed and built by the Perini Navi Group’s Mast Department, totals over 1,400 square meters and is handled through 11 reel captive winches. The main and mizzen masts measure 56.7m and a 43m respectively, and are in aluminum while the furling boom and spreaders are in carbon fiber.
The hull has an opening transom that becomes an ample beach platform. The 19’ main tender is housed under the fore deck in a flush tender well that also houses a catamaran that can be mounted for day sailing. The superstructure has been completely redesigned with two large skylights.
