Superyacht Sarissa collected major awards at the recent Boat International Design & Innovation Awards 2024. The superyacht, designed by Malcolm Mckeon Yacht Design, was honored with five awards in total, including the Eco Award and Innovation of the Year. The performance cruising superyacht won the judges over, who were impressed by her clean design and sleek exterior. Sarissa, whose name means long, sharp spear in Greek, is 59.7m and was built by Royal Huisman. The yacht is packed with innovation throughout. Above the deck, Sarissa is equipped with #North3Di sails, a Southern Spars rig, and Future Fibres AeroSix rigging. She is the first superyacht to select Aerosix and is the largest yacht sailing with this new rigging technology. Fun fact - Sarissa's in-boom furling North 3Di mainsail is the largest flat-top mainsail in the world. #superyachtdesign #sailinginnovation #superyacht #northsails #royalhuisman #malcolmmckeon #sailing
Two big launches at opposite ends of the world. On top, the 32m Ultim trimaran Gitana 18 headed out from her base in Lorient on the west coast of France for her maiden sail. Down under the Kiwis slipped their dock lines in Auckland to take their newly reconfigured AC75 out for its first sail. Both are big steps forward, both were carefully choreographed affairs and both represent the first steps in two new generations at the very leading edge of the sport.
