UNFURLED VITTERS.COM CREATIVE MINDS AND SKILFUL HANDS

Unfurled has won prestigious awards and regatta trophies. A stunning result and a statement to the owner, designer, our building team and everyone involved! UNFURLED HAS WON BOTH THE WORLD SUPERYACHT AWARD IN THE SAILING YACHT 45 METRE AND ABOVE CATEGORY, AS WELL AS THE 2016 SAILING YACHT OF THE YEAR AWARD. UNFURLED IS THE OVERALL WINNER OF THE SAINT BARTHS BUCKET REGATTA 2016 AS WELL AS THE WINNER IN LES GAZELLES DES MERS CLASS.

We believe elegance and restraint in design should result in a yacht that is timeless. This goal has been achieved. Unfurled has exceeded our expectations in terms of quality of build, performance and overall visual beauty. Owners of Unfurled

Our goal was the distillation of our past design ideas, applied to the interior and exterior of the new Unfurled. Another fundamental goal was to create a yacht pure in design, not compromising space; rather, using it generously, not compromising performance, a yacht beautiful in line - exterior and interior. Owners of Unfurled OWNERS VISION As knowledgeable owners whose past three boats have been custom built, this 151 foot sailing yacht, designed by Germán Frers and built by Vitters Shipyard, represents the culmination of a lifetime of competitive sailing and worldwide cruising. To translate the Owners ideas into a custom sailing yacht is a team effort. This team starts with the Owners, their Representative, the Naval Architect, the Designer and the Shipyard. Each member of the team has a specific task and responsibility.

DESIGNER S STATEMENT: GERMAN FRÈRS The specification includes current technology and new concepts in a new, unique design focused on offering those aboard intimate enjoyment of sailing, onboard living comfort and the occasional exhilarating racing experience. According to our racing yacht practice the hull design has been extensively analyzed and refined. The low drag maximum waterline length powerful shape of the canoe body has been fitted with a telescopic keel for maximum upwind speed and twin rudders. The Southern Spars all carbon mast, roller furling boom and the carbon fiber standing rigging are a state-of-the-art, sophisticated affair. There is no permanent backstay, but a swept-back spreader with a set of running backstays to allow setting a square to mainsail which will be reefed for cruising as necessary to keep the runners in a fixed position. The downwind sails would be stowed ready for use on special drums developed by Vitters Shipyard.

Unfurled, this 46-metre high performance aluminium sloop is the first yacht built by Vitters Shipyard to a design by Germán Frers. The cooperation with the Argentinian designer has been a resounding success. Both the design studio and the yard have a long track record of high performance cruisers and their joint experience created a great combination. The yacht embodies paramount high performance characteristics while offering the enjoyment of comfortable living on-board and to compete in the world s most competitive superyacht regattas. TRANSLATING One of the early and most important stages in the process of building a custom yacht is to transform the ideas of the Owners, the lines of the Naval Architect and the design of the Interior Stylist into information that can be used for construction. Very often this will require creative skills of fitting, adapting and inventing parts that never have been built before. Most of the items apply to the actual sailing part and are a direct development of the sailing capabilities of our previous yachts. At Vitters we have a team of people who have the knowledge and experience, in combination with the creative skills, to develop the right solutions and equipment for the job. The proof of this is in the wide variety of new developments that have been used in our yachts in past years.

HIGH PERFORMANCE AND LUXURY ON-BOARD Unfurled is the overall winner of the 2016 Saint Barths Bucket Regatta. It was with great excitement that we also saw her presented with the Bucket Trophy as the pursuit class winner which prevailed in the most competitive, closely contested class. Unfurled embodies paramount high performance characteristics, while offering the enjoyment of comfortable and luxurious living on-board. Sailing yachts built at Vitters Shipyard regularly win global superyacht regattas, maintaining Vitters position as one of the most influential high performance superyacht builders in the world. We are very proud of our heritage of race wins and this is something we strive to continue with every custom racing yacht build. Vitters Shipyard is the proud sponsor of a number of sailing regattas, providing a platform for yachts and their crews to show their sailing power, whilst competing against their peers. These regattas also provide an opportunity for like-minded people who a share a passion for sailing, to get together and enjoy a fantastic sport.

I N N O VAT I O N S A twin engine installation with retractable propulsion pods is used in order to reduce drag while racing and optimize power requirements and fuel consumption while motor sailing.

RETRACTABLE THRUSTER PODS A clean underwater hull without dragging a feathered propeller through the water was, until recently, only seen on racing yachts. Our novel development of a twin engine installation with direct drive pods offers this opportunity now also to performance cruising yachts. This is a new advancement which will certainly be used on many future yachts and which offers improved performance, also on existing yachts originally designed for cruising. BELOW DECK STAY SAIL AND CODE SAIL STORAGE SYSTEM For ease of handling with a shorthanded crew, a unique headsail storage system was developed in-house for the handling of large code sails. To greatly enhance the yacht s sailing performance and enjoyment, two sail stowage drums are situated under the foredeck. The system reduces man handling to an absolute minimum, keeping the arrangement safe and usable with short hand crew.

FLUSH DECK DESIGN AND WINCH PIT Modern designed and styled yachts require clean and uncluttered decks. This is a trend which started several years ago. By finding new solutions for bollards, tracks and even air in- and outlets, our recently built yachts show what is possible in terms of hiding equipment, which can be in conflict with styling. It offers the look and feel that our clients and their architects are looking for. Retractable mooring line bollards, under deck sail storage and a flush covered dinghy create the cleanness and simplicity that was envisioned by the Owners. The straight laid teak deck expresses the Owners and designer s vision for an extraordinary feel of cleanness with purity of design. The deck planks are laid parallel to the centerline of the yacht and perfectly aligned with hatches and deck hardware.

STEERING CONSOLE The well thought-out and developed interior layout, is well in tune with the minimalistic exterior and offers unique interior-exterior spaces. DECKHOUSE, COCKPIT AND RETRACTABLE GLASS WINDOWS A large covered cockpit fitted with retractable glass windows creates an al fresco lounge and dining area directly leading to the below deck salon. With the side windows closed, it offers the guests protection from the elements while still enjoying the panoramic view. The cockpit furniture has been inspired by well-known design models, which have been adapted for yacht sailing and the marine environment.

INTERIOR In Unfurled, craftsmanship was combined with technology to create a totally modern and innovative nautical interior of the highest standard. Furniture and architecture complement each other, integrating materials with timeless design principles and marrying the signature aesthetic of the yacht with Owners pursuit for scale, proportion and harmony.

The result is a sophisticated, innovative interior based on simple geometric principles but rich in detail reflecting the owner s rational design approach and objective perfectionism. It has been designed to seamlessly unite with the Germán Frers sleek and elegant exterior lines to give the yacht a harmonious integrity. From the moment you descend the central companionway from the cockpit, the interior layout respects the symmetry of the yacht giving a sense of natural order, calm and legibility with crew occupying the foreship and owner and guests aft. Oliver Stirling DESIGNERS STATEMENT: OLIVER STIRLING This exceptional project defies convention in many ways. The owners are not only lifelong experienced and competitive yachtsmen, but also accomplished designers in their own right with enormous knowledge and appreciation of material, structure and architectural form. This process involved the combined skills and experience of the owner s team, yard and fit out contractor at every level to optimise the use of space and materials and to refine design concepts through the development of samples and mock ups. Adopting their Bauhaus objective of reconciling art and industry, and with their current iconic yacht as a benchmark, the designer s role throughout the project was to collaborate with them to develop design themes in minute detail and translate their creative thoughts and personal needs into the built form. The Owner s uncompromising conviction in the power and utility of modern design is articulated through the simplicity, honesty and consistency of materials and detailing. Extensive research and testing of materials led to a tightly controlled palette that establishes a pragmatic and rhythmical hierarchy of surface treatment throughout owner s and crew areas, with detailing developed to express the integrity and honesty of each surface and junction.
