Iltchi is a tough, stylish and fast ketch, designed to reward her owner with a great sailing experience. In terms of appearance, this 76ft centreboard ketch is something of a departure for Hoek Design, but as far as function is concerned, she is very much within our scope of naval architecture. Designed as a long-distance, go anywhere cruising yacht with a ketch-rigged sail plan, she should be powerful and efficient off the wind and easily managed by a short-handed crew. She is destined for Pacific cruising, where her ability to reduce draft to 2.6m should come in very useful. The focal point of the accommodation is a combined galley, navigation and dining area located in the main deckhouse where the occupants can enjoy a superb 360° view of their surroundings. The owners’ cabin and one guest cabin are located forward with two guest cabins aft, one of which can become a crew cabin if required. The interior is finished in white washed oak and features leather upholstered seating. The main cockpit is large and well protected with all sheet winches positioned within reach of the helmsman. There is tender stowage beneath the expansive aft deck and the transom door opens to double as a swimming and boarding platform. Her aluminium hull was built by Alucraft and fitted out and finished by Aluboot, both in the Netherlands. Iltchi is named after Winnetou’s horse in the German novels of the same name – it means ‘wind’.
With plenty of space to enjoy its tranquil elegance, the Swift Trawler 54 is designed for long-distance cruising in complete comfort. 😌 👀 Find out feature that might end up being your favorite, then visit our website to see this spectacular yacht at Boot Düsseldorf and fill out the form! #Beneteau #MasterYachting #SwiftTrawler54 #YachtingWorld #MasterYachtingGroup #BeneteauMotor
For Peter Burling and Blair Tuke (NZL), the Medal Race is a victory lap, the Kiwis having won the 49er Men's gold medal with two races to spare after dominating the 20-boat fleet at Rio 2016 over the past week. However, they always go all out to win, so don't be surprised to see New Zealand winning the race today. Behind them the battle rages on for the other medals, with Erik Heil and Thomas Ploessel (GER) holding second place just three points in front of the Nathan Outteridge and Iain Jensen (AUS). This means the 2012 Olympic Champions need to get at least one boat between them and the Germans to secure silver. However, the Germans and Aussies can't afford to engage in a pure match race because waiting to ruin the party are Dylan Fletcher and Alain Sign (GBR) who lie ten points behind Australia.
