VITTERS "MYSTÈRE"
In the summer of 2006 Holland, a country boasting some of the
world's most famous super-yacht shipyards, will host the launching
of "Mystère", a 143-ft sloop designed by Tripp Design for
Vitters Shipyard. The hull of the "Mystère" will be built
of aluminium, the superstructures of composite and its essential
lines will be those of a sloop designed for fast cruising. The
hull will be developed so as to achieve the maximum wet surface
and will have a length/beam ratio favouring the former. The deck
design includes a deckhouse with a rather low, sporty profile, a
solution which will not, however, detract from the boat's interior
liveability. The choice of a flush main-deck will guarantee
excellent visibility from the steering position, which will be
equipped with a double helm. "Mystère" will be equipped
with a 5.75-m retractable keel, ensuring excellent stability when
extended and facilitating port manoeuvres when retracted (to a
minimum of 3.75 m). The interiors will be designed by Dick Young
Designs and will be done in cherry wood. The interior layout
provides for an owner's suite and three guest cabins, as well as
quarters for the crew of six.
