The lovely sailing yacht Zefira by Fitzroy Yachts

By Adrian Prisca

Updated on August 31, 2017

This week’s majestic sailing yacht is the Zefira, a gorgeous queen of the seas and luxury cruiser, the 7 th Dubois design built by Fitzroy Yachts.

Measuring 49.7 meters from tip to toe, this high performance vessel is reportedly the largest sloop ever built by Dubois Naval Architects. It was designed without a flybridge and was crafted entirely from lightweight aluminum, with a bulb keel and maximum beam measuring 9.95 meters.

The Italian owners of this majestic cruiser are passionate for everything related to art. They have previously owned the Kokomo of London, another Dubois-designed sloop. This has raised the challenge for Dubois to use their immeasurable experience in building a fresher vessel, but still embodying the same features and the same stunning performance.

They have succeeded with ease, which proves their extensive expertise in the business. There’s a remarkable feeling of freedom once you get aboard, plus a somewhat logical and facile flow of spaces. One of the most important features of the yacht is comfort, which is simply staggering onboard this magnificent sloop.

The manufacturer has had to think of finishes at the same level as the comfort – yet again, the result is truly magnificent. Detailing the interior a bit, we notice a vast owner’s suite, with special attention given to the wardrobe space, plus a large bathroom aft of the main cabin. Remi Tessier’s expertise was added to the beauty of the interiors.

There’s no doubt about the fact that this majestic sailing yacht is absolutely marvelous, both inside and outside. It simply shows the near-perfection that can be achieved if two powerful names like Remi Tessier and Dubois join forces.

First pictures of new superyacht Zefira

Market Intelligence is proud to bring you previously unpublished pictures of the new 49.69m sailing yacht Zefira .

Launched recently this year, this superyacht was commissioned by an Italian couple who sought the design expertise of Dubois Naval Architects and chose New Zealand's Fitzroy Yachts to build her.

With four aft cabins for eight guests and accommodation for up to nine crew, Zefira is the quintessential sailing yacht with a low profile, plumb bow, flush deck, generous sail plan and the latest thinking in keel design.

The biggest ever Dubois sloop built without a flybridge, Zefira has a chic, minimalist interior by Rémi Tessier.

Written by Mike Smith

The 50 metre sailing yacht Zefira is being built by New Zealand’s Fitzroy Yachts is close to being launched in New Plymouth. Superyacht Zefira is a Dubois Yachts designed sloop rigged yacht with a project or model name x50. The construction of the Dubois designed 49.7m fast cruising sloop Zefira yacht began back in April 2008. This Dubois designed 49.7m fast cruising sloop is all aluminium with a bulb keel and she has a maximum beam of 9.95 metres. The yacht has a flybridge although the profile is still sleek and low profile. The beautiful word Zefira comes from a Hebrew origin, and its meaning is “morning”. The yacht is expected to have a very good sailing performance.

Yacht Zefira

Luxury yacht Zefira’s interior design details and interior designer are not known at this stage, although it could well have been created by Adam Lay Studio Limited which worked on the yacht SALPERTON IV. The yacht has a lower saloon with a studio and there is also a main deck pilot house. Zefira is a able to accommodate the yacht owner in and owner’s cabin and at least a further 6 guests in 3 guest cabins. The crew also have 3 cabins along with a captain’s cabin.

With her single Caterpillar C32 1400 BHP diesel engine the luxury yacht will be able to manage a cruise speed of around 12 knots and a top speed of just over that figure. Federico Biatturi is the captain of this exciting new yacht.

This is the list of Fitzroy built superyachts currently available for yacht charters . Here are the Dubois designed yachts that are for charter . It is not as yet known whether the superyacht will be available for luxury sailing yacht charters . Please contact the CharterWorld team us for further details.

Zefira’s sails are to be made by North Sails New Zealand. Her launch follows the build of the highly exhilarating Salperton IV, also by Fitzroy and with sails from North Sails, launched late last year and complete with a performance 3DL sail package that included a reacher and blade headsails, and a fully battened mainsail.

At this stage little else is known of Fitzroy’s sailing yacht Zefira. There are no photos or images of the actual yacht as yet published. What is known is that Fitzroy has already built some Dubois designed superyachts with much success such as sailing yachts SALPERTON IV, ZULU, HELIOS and MIDNIGHT.
