We celebrate three remarkable years of Alea, a 56-meter aluminium sloop designed by Mani Frers and built by Vitters Shipyard. Her elegant interior was crafted by the design studio MAtelier based in Milan, seamlessly combining refined aesthetics with comfort and functionality. Construction of Alea began in spring 2020. Despite the challenges, Vitters delivered the yacht in July 2022. Alea is a yacht that perfectly reflects the DNA of our shipyard, a project we are extremely proud of. Alea features a spacious owner's suite with an ensuite bathroom located forward. The guest cabins are located to starboard aft, while the crew occupies the port side aft. A standout feature is the generous lazarette, which houses a 7-meter tender and can easily be converted into a proper beach club offering a direct connection to the sea. Her rig is built to Panamax specifications, allowing Alea to clear the Bridge of the Americas over the Panama Canal. @vittersshipyard
You can now find new Zircon models in 29mm sheaves and triple sheave versions of the 40mm and 57mm. New sizes make Zircon appropriate for control lines in multi-part purchases. And they react immediately. So, when the pressure gets light, and sailors want to ease that 24:1 cunningham they’ve rigged under the deck, it will move. Since the first tests, Zircon blocks have overcome inertia so easily, trimmers have reacted in fractions of time and sheet—creating better-matched sail shapes that increase boat speed. The update here is that now, they’re great for more than sheets. Learn more about the 29mm Zircons 👉 https://bit.ly/Zircon29mm
