Pendennis Superyacht CHRISTOPHER by Ron Holland Design

Sailing yacht Christopher is a 46m ketch, built by Pendennis in Falmouth, UK in partnership with Ron Holland Design and Palm Beach Yachts International.

Ron Holland’s brief for yacht Christopher was to design a yacht combining classic style with the most advanced sailing technology. Below the waterline, twin rudders and an extraordinarily deep centreboard, which increases draught from 12ft 6ins to more than 31ft, dramatically enhance sailing performance.

S/Y Christopher made her first appearance at St. Barth’s Bucket Regatta in the Spring of 2011 where her imposing red chilli spinnaker made a bold statement over Gustavia.

56 metre Sailing Yacht Panthalassa by Perini Navi /Ron Holland

S/Y Panthalassa is a 56m ketch, that is the eighth in the very successful Perini Navi /Ron Holland Design 56m series superyachts and features many important innovations.

The Panthalassa yachts’ hull lines have been optimised in order to further sailing performance. The aluminium superstructure is totally new and marked by a more racy and aerodynamic line than the earlier 56m designs and Panthalassa’s spacious interior has been designed by Foster and Partners.
