    Maiora 39

    Maiora 39 is one of the jewels of the Maiora product line, a name that boasts over 30 years of experience in the construction of highly prestigious motoryachts.

    This 39 meters yacht really doesn’t pass unnoticed, not only for her dimensions, but also for her design that combines comfort and luxury, safety and practicality, elegance and aggressiveness, tradition and innovation. Exteriors and interiors are designed with great attention to detail and all is configured with relaxation in mind with generous dimensions and comfortable layouts while her imposing profile is kept clean and elegant.

    The owner has chosen to build a yacht where white color predominates thereby creating an elegant continuity between the exterior and interior and resulting in a homely atmosphere of complete well-being. The combination of colors and lights is truly amazing: combination of bamboo and birch clear woods for floors, furniture and ceilings. Entering the main saloon through the elegant glass sliding door, there is a bright environment where light colors predominate, a wide social area furnished with two sofas in ivory leather and two coffee tables, with white carpeting, ceilings upholstered in white leather and cabinetry made out of light bamboo which is also finished with a coat of “peach skin” varnish, making even the tactile experience of this interior a truly soft and soothing one.

The dining area is furnished with a rectangular table which can comfortably accommodate up to 8 guests.

    Further up there is a comfortable and well equipped galley finished using the same palette of colors: white Corian for the floor which matches the white lacquered cabinetry that gives brightness to this area as well.Proceeding towards the bow, after the galley, there is a comfortable raised wheelhouse finished in light brown leather and a second saloon which is wonderful: it is an office and audio-visual entertainment area with details in black and silver color which provide contrast with the floor, furniture and ceilings. Fitted with a convertible sofa and a comfortable bathroom with shower, this saloon can also be used as an additional guest cabin.

    Cabins are located on the lower deck: four comfortable guests cabins (two VIP double cabins and two twin cabins with an additional Pullman bed each – all of them with private bathrooms), in addition to the enormous Owner’s Suite located towards the bow. This cabin really shows how the large volumes of Maiora 39dp are used to the best effect. This full-beam cabin features a wide walk-in closet and a very comfortable bathroom with a huge shower. And custom-made lamps specially hand-crafted for this yacht are a feature common to all cabins, their craftsmanship is breathtakingly beautiful and they make each and every area of the yacht absolutely unique.

    In the bathrooms, the ceilings are lacquered, countertops are made of light bamboo and showers are luxuriously finished in Bisazza mosaic tiles. Therefore, bathrooms are also part of this world made of smoothness and softness.

    Well-equipped crew quarters are located all the way on the bow, they feature four comfortable cabins all with private bathrooms, a separate galley exclusively for crew use, as well as separate access from outside deck.

Located at the front of the flying bridge, there is the upper helm position which allows navigation to be enjoyed in the open air.

    The spacious aft cockpit features an alfresco dining area with a comfortable table for open air dining. Two side stairs lead from the cockpit to the bathing platform, an area which brings guests in direct contact with the sea.

  • Lionheart wins J Class Falmouth Regatta

    Lionheart wins J Class Falmouth Regatta

    Big congratulations are due to the owner and crew of the Claasen-built Lionheart who have won the first major J-class race of 2015!

    Our black-hulled beauty had to win the sixth and final race on Saturday to clinch the J-class Falmouth Regatta title. A huge crowd of spectators watched the J fleet lock horns in Cornwall and were rewarded with a very exciting race. The start proved close with Ranger and Velsheda going head to head, but Lionheart sailed smartly and smoothly to ultimately beat Ranger by 42 seconds.

    Lionheart’s tactician John Cutler was delighted with both the victory and the event: “As a group we are really pleased to win on this tough race course. It is a spectacle which does not come around often and the boats are awesome.” Similarly spectacular racing on an even larger scale was seen at the 19th Superyacht Cup in Palma from 17 to 20 June. Claasen was ‘Industry Partner’ for this year’s event and after three days of exciting racing it was the classic ketch Marie who claimed overall victory.

    Our very own Heartbeat bagged a class win during last year’s SYC and overall victory the year before. While they could not quite repeat the feat this year, Heartbeat’s crew gave it their all at a regatta where 21 competitors were split across three classes of super-close battles.
