The “Felicita West” is a 62 meter sailing yacht built in 2003 by the Perini Navi shipyard in Viareggio. Just for comparison, you can see on the right the 59 meter “I Dynasty”.The overview on her website simply states that this is the largest and fastest aluminium sailing yacht in the world.To the really daring ones they offer the most spectacular views from the crow's nest lift that ascends 40 meters (131 feet). The boat is available for charter.

ReplyDeleteAnyone want to pitch in and charter together? Looks like great fun! :)
ReplyDeleteI was in Viareggio last September for just one night. I didn't know they had a shipyard there. I thought they just had hotels, tents and beach chairs.
ReplyDeleteShe is beautiful. She is very sleek and just looks fast. No crow's nest for me--thanks anyway. LOL

Wow, I can't believe how tall that mast is. It seems like if I went up to the crow's nest and leaned slightly, the boat would capsize.
ReplyDelete@ Jack - Viareggio has several renowned shipyards, specialized in luxury yachts.
