The Spanish company, Northwind yachts es. have launched their NW72 sailing sloop yacht. Here are some very brief statistical figures from the website:

Model NORTH WIND 72
LOA 21 m
LWL 19 m
Beam 5,35 m
Draft 2,65 m
Displacement 37.050 kg
Ballast 12.930 kg
Interior layout Owner´s cabin in the stern, with independent head and shower -Twin guests' cabins in the bow (2x) with independent head and shower - Crew´s cabin with twin berths and independent head and shower.

A general discription of this vessel could include that she has a black hull and a grey deckhouse. The hull is adorned with an orange/red motif on the starboard-aft corner of the stern-somewhat similar to what you could find on the Wally s/y Tango-. The deckhouse is adorned with sweeping window, affording beautiful views. The mast and boom are black as well. Attached to the boom will be the main sail which will be in-boom furling type. For the forward sails, both the genoa and the stay sail will be hydraulically/automatically operated.

I'm not sure of the price of this vessel, so I would not speculate without being absolutely sure.
Welcome aboard Ivan

I think it will be less than a Nautor

I've taken a good look at the images and I mostly like the colour scheme. The rest lacks a little finess. I would be interested in the sail-plan, but it's not on their website.

I personally think that modern performance cruisers should have in-deck hydraulic furls. It helps performance and... it also looks better.

Hey Bjorn,

I think that there is a sailplan on the website but it is in PDF format? Try Here:
