Italian studio MASK Architects has released a 30.5-metre sailing yacht concept called Project Tavolara. The fast-cruising sloop is designed in equal parts for “exceptional comfort” and “exhilarating speed”, with the foundation of its projected performance (18 knots) lying in its advanced hull platform.<\/p>\n\n\n

The yacht would be built using a carbon-fibre composite sandwich construction, incorporating either a foam or balsa core. Similar solutions can be found on Wally’s Y3K sailer and the 53.9-metre Ravenger by Baltic Yachts, with this construction method crucial for achieving maximum structural rigidity while maintaining an ultra-lightweight profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rigging will be equally advanced, comprised of a high modulus carbon mast and “state-of-the-art” 3Di sails by North Sails.<\/p>\n\n\n

Exterior design is clean and pared-back, with simple, gentle curved lines and natural teak finishes. Living spaces will be similarly styled, incorporating lightweight composite panels, honeycomb-structured materials and lightened fine woods for weight management. The carbon-fibre theme will also be continued in Project Tavolara’s “aesthetic detailing” for a contemporary, high-tech interior atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the technical side, Project Tavolara has been tailored with owner autonomy in mind. Electric or hydraulic winches will allow for semi-automated sail handling, complemented by integrated home automation such as remote control lighting, climate systems and electronics.<\/p>\n\n\n

“Our vision is to create a harmonious blend of cutting-edge technology, aerodynamic efficiency and sophisticated elegance,” explained the studio. “We are channeling our expertise into every detail, ensuring Project Tavolara will not only be a triumph of engineering but also a floating masterpiece that redefines the sailing experience.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Italian studio made waves earlier this week with an update on its hydrogen-powered superyacht design, developed under the codename ONYX H2-B0 85.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
