Yachting Developments; 37M Sloop Underway
Yachting Developments Limited, even more known for the recent delivery of the Bristolian II, has a 37M sloop under construction for launch in 2009. This sloop will be fashioned from composite materials and built to a design by Dubois Naval Architects. Responsibility for the interior has been given to Design Unlimited.
This yacht is clearly a Dubois design in terms of style, interior layout and overall feel. But there is one big difference - she is composite in construction. Built by YDL in New Zealand (builders of Dubois designs Silvertip and Intrigue) this vessel will be a very happy collaboration between the two companies and we are delighted to be working in composite for this project.
The yacht will be fast, reliable and able to cruise the oceans with confidence both in terms of sea worthiness and independence.
