YYachts shows Y7 in Genoa
The German shipyard showcases a Y7 at the Genoa Boat Show (16 – 21 september). After a successful Cannes Yachting Festival the #YYachts team looks very forward to the Italian fair.
The 61st edition of the Genoa Boat Show will bring together all aspects of yachting. Among the numerous sailing yachts on display will also be a spectacular Y7 from the German shipyard #YYachts. Y Yachts will be present at booth SC17 with the #yacht directly in front (C105).
The aim in developing the Y7 was to combine comfortable sailing behaviour with competitive sailing performance, also on the regatta course. This was achieved by consistently reducing the weight of the #yacht during construction and the expertise of Y Yachts founder Michael Schmidt and Bill Tripp, one of the world’s best naval architects when it comes to saling yachts above 20 metres.
All halyards, sheets and stretchers on Y7 run hidden to the control columns. The helmsman can operate Y7 alone at any time - not a matter of course for a 70-foot #yacht. With a weight of around 28.5 tons and a sail area of almost 300 square meters at wind, Y7 has sufficient propulsion even in light winds and offers corresponding sailing fun.
The furling system and anchor are elegantly integrated; the up to 3.45 metre long dinghy disappears into the rear garage. It is launched with a patent pending lift integrated into the carbon fibre boom.
Manoeuvring in the marina becomes child's play with Y7. Two engines, a bow thruster and the joystick control even make it possible for the #yacht, which is almost 22 metres long, to be driven transversely.
The interior of the Y7 was designed by Norm Architects from Copenhagen. The Danish architects, who usually work in furniture and residence #design, gave the #yacht a reduced #design with few colour tones. An owner's cabin in the bow area and two cabins aft of the saloon accommodate a total of six passengers; the crew of two sleep in another cabin in the stern. The layout can of course be adapted.
"With our slogan to offer good and on the substantial reduced sail yachts, we buck fully the trend“, says Y/Yachts founder Michael Schmidt. "We attract owners who are ecologically sensitive. And there will be more and more of them in the future".
