82f Performance Cruiser

A Modern Sailing Yacht Combining Performance and Comfort

The PC82f is a new addition to the yachts designed by HENNDESIGN, created by renowned designer Holger Henn. This sailing yacht is the perfect combination of modern yacht technologies and fine aesthetics, offering both advanced sailing experience and compelling comfort in one concept. Inspired by classic sailing yachts and clean modern architecture, the PC82f stands out with its clean deck solution and racing hull.

The PC82f is designed to be the best performance yacht possible, with a hull influenced by the shape of racing hulls and a comfortable and cozy deck layout. The clean deck solution not only enhances safety during sailing operations but also provides a luxurious and comfortable space for guests. The yacht's unique feature lies in its ability to combine high-performance sailing with a sophisticated and inviting deck design.

The hull and deck of the PC82f are made using GRP sandwich with carbon fiber reinforcement, manufactured through vacuum infusion. The mast, boom, and rigging are crafted from carbon fiber, ensuring strength and durability while keeping the yacht lightweight. With a length overall (LOA) of 25.80 meters, a waterline length (LWL) of 24.99 meters, a beam of 6.15 meters, and a draft of 1.5 meters, the PC82f offers a spacious and stable platform for sailing.

Designed to accommodate 8-10 guests and a crew of 3, the PC82f provides ample space for relaxation and entertainment. The yacht is operated with a small crew, thanks to its user-friendly design and efficient layout. The interior of the yacht is carefully crafted to ensure a high standard of comfort, while maintaining a minimalistic look.

The PC82f project started in May 2019 at a shipyard in the south of China and is expected to be completed by September 2020. The design research for this yacht focused on creating a timeless look that would withstand changing trends. The shape of the yacht draws inspiration from modern America's Cup race yachts and minimalist architectural features and proportions. The sleek lines and long bow of the PC82f resemble those of a sports coupe, adding a touch of elegance to its design.

Despite the creative and technical challenges faced during the design process, the PC82f successfully achieves a balance between performance, comfort, and aesthetics. The yacht offers a high level of sailing performance while providing a luxurious and inviting environment for guests. The PC82f has been recognized for its excellence and was awarded the Iron A' Design Award in the Yacht and Marine Vessels Design category in 2019.

With its unique combination of performance and comfort, the PC82f Performance Cruiser is a testament to the innovative and sophisticated designs created by HENNDESIGN and Holger Henn. This yacht is a true masterpiece that showcases the best of modern yacht technologies and timeless aesthetics.
