Holland Jachtbouw launches sleek Dixon sloop...
The debut cooperation between Dutch yard Holland Jachtbouw and the Dixon Design office has resulted in a spectacular fast cruising yacht. Launched as YII in March 2006, this fast cruising sloop has an uncluttered, almost minimalist appearance. This is achieved by a low profile deckhouse combined with a range of sleek features such as recessed headsail furlers, a 'through hull' anchor system, pop up cleats, deck-recessed Genoa tracks and concealed hinges for hatches.
YII’s Alustar hull and low weight of 152 tons will ensure that her performance is as impressive as her looks. The yacht is fitted with a suite from North Sails and her entire deck equipment and power package is supplied by the yachting world’s leading brands.
The air of exclusivity and elegance is continued below deck, where John Munford has designed a modern yet distinctly warm interior. Pear and wenge woods blend with light white panels throughout the yacht, all of which contrasts superbly with the woven leather panels in the corridor. As befits a yacht of this stature, the crew quarters are spacious and well appointed. Captain and crew are assured of a comfortable shakedown cruise to the Mediterranean after her sea trials.
