The preliminary design of the Charlotte 41 (design no.148) is finished. The Charlotte 41 is a traditional sailing yacht but will be built in high tech composites. The Charlotte 41 is the smaller sister of the Charlotte 45 (design no. 110). The building will start in October by ‘Adrie Pijnen Jachtbouw’.
The Falcon 44 (design no.139) is launched on July 21st. The yacht is built in composite and has a retractable keel. The building started in October 2004 and the whole project is done by an ‘amateur’ builder. The result is a professionally built yacht with traditional lines and up-to-date sailing characteristics. The Falcon 44 will make her first sailing trips in August.
