Build Update: HJB 45M sloop "YIII"

Build update on the new HJB 45-meter sloop "YIII"​

Construction is now well underway of this sleek 45m high performance sloop which has been designed by Bill Dixon with an interior from the boards of Rhoades Young Design. The yacht was commissioned by a repeat client who has enjoyed many years sailing on his current HJB yacht. She'll be painted in a relaxed and light earthy/sandy colour on the hull with white superstructure, mast and boom.

Designed to do very well in the light airs of the Mediterranean, the yacht will include a number of special features. Highlights include a fully automatic bimini and dodger, a double hinging transom door/swim platform, and a telescopic lifting keel that has been designed in such a way that it will not interfere with the interior layout. Launching is on schedule for spring 2014.
