Read moreWhen Ancasta first introduced the new Fairlie 55 to the world at the Cannes Yacht Show last September, we knew that the combination of an exquisite classic design and exemplary craftsmanship would make her a real head turner. It didn’t take long before she found her rightful owner, who perhaps unsurprisingly, hails from the glamorous film industry. To be enjoyed as a family weekend retreat, she will be deservedly idolised in all her glory, while moored in her new home, the luxury marina at Portofino, Italy .
The Fairlie 55 is the first in the new ‘spirit of tradition’ class and while recapturing the style and allure of a golden era, offers high performance sailing and is constructed of only the finest quality materials. Fairlie Yachts are delighted that their much acclaimed design will be used as intended, and enjoyed in the sunny climes she deserves.
