1.1. General

The idea is to create a modern performance cruising yacht, which will be used mainly in

the Med and warmer climates. The yacht will be used mainly for exclusive charter and

cruising by private owners. To ensure good performance, careful attention to weight

saving should be made wherever possible. With its reasonably high sail area

displacement ratio there should be good all round performance. The idea is to create a

unique and innovative yacht with modern clean styling, without losing any feeling of

comfort.

1.2. Classification

(Still to be decided)

The yacht will be classed and shall comply with the British D.O.Ts “The Safety Of Small

Commercial Sailing Vessels - A Code of Practice” regulations, for which a certificate will

be applied for or the EU ISO Rules.

1.3. Substitutions

All materials and manufactured articles of construction and equipment are to be of the

best quality for their respective purposes. References to trade names and catalogue

numbers are generally intended to be descriptive rather than restrictive, and are

indicative of the general type and grade of articles that will be satisfactory. The Architect

will normally be prepared to approve substitutions if satisfied that there will be no sacrifice

in quality, difficulty with procurement of spare parts, or replacement. However, in all

cases, it is understood that the choice shall rest with the Owner or Architect and changes

from items listed by trade name shall be made only with his approval.

1.4. Weight and Performance

Control of weights, centers of gravity, and weight reduction where feasible is critical to

the performance of the yacht. Wherever in the specifications approved substitutions are

made for specified items of equipment or equipment specified on an “or equal” basis the

equivalent weights of the new equipment shall not exceed the weight of the items

specified unless approved by the Architect.

The builder shall weigh the boat at major milestones and provide the Architect with

actual “as-built” weights and longitudinal centers of gravity. The Architect may wish to

witness these procedures.
