Bruce Farr was commissioned to design this sleek ocean racer/cruiser after his success with various yachts in the Whitbread and the inshore and offshore MAXI SERIES.

Her KEVLAR/GLASS hull with closed cell core was designed to be strong enough to stand the worst of condition while remaining light enough (32 tons) to be a competitive racing yacht as was proved by her sister ship MY SONG on many successful races.

The interior design and deck lay-out were carried out by the NAUTA YACHTS DESIGN STUDIOS of Milano incorporating the best in Italian styling with the latest in construction technology.

The greatest attention has been paid to even the smallest of detail and some interesting alterations from the norm have been incorporated to produce one of the finest and fastest blue water yachts to date.

The hull is built of sandwich construction with PVC close cell foam core vacuum bonded with vinylestere resin to Kevlar and multiaxials E glass skins, keel area double laminated without foam, reinforced with aluminum structure bolted to frames and longitudinal structural elements. Sump area recessed on top of the keel.
