Vitters Shipyard - superyacht 66m sloop Aglaia - Dubois Design
Aglaia is a spectacular 66m sloop-rigged aluminium yacht designed by naval architect Dubois Design. The large sloop rig is all carbon with EC6 rigging and gives a sail area to displacement ratio equivalent to a racing yacht.
With the motto to develop a 60m+ yacht that sails like a dinghy, the design and build team set specific targets like hoisting the main sail in less than two minutes and tacking the boat within 30 seconds.
Vitters Shipyard developed an innovative storage system on two drums in the forepeak for the Staysail and Code 1. In addition, Vitters designed a new type of furler for the Staysail to increase safety of the crew by completely avoiding manual handling for large sail hoisting and setting.
Aglaia started off her second Mediterranean season with a spectacular novelty: she now carries a Code 1 artwork by the Norwegian art designer Magne Furuholmen. This is the worldwide largest artwork on canvas. Though one can hardly call a 3600 sqm painting a detail, this is yet another confirmation of nearly every single detail of this yacht being extraordinary.

this is the most beautiful sail yacht I have ever seen, the deck looks so clean.
I saw this in person in San Diego. literally massive!!!
This random video shows up… although it is 10 years old, the SV is still spectacular and looks so modern. Also it’s nice to see the sails unfurl. All the latest videos never show the sails deploying. I wonder why? 🤔 👍
Love the sail artwork replicated on the crew uniforms, and we hear there's another piece of Magne Furuholmen's inside?! - a great way to tie together the yacht as a single entity. How you can dislike this video, I'll never know!
Now that's a sleek-looking yacht.👍
I saw her in Croatia last summer! :) she is awesome!
Stunning !!
just a real beauty
Vitters... really beauty designs!!!!
We are very sorry not to be able to show you any interiors of this beauty!
Wonderful beautiful aglaia
100% Spectra or Dyneema. Superlight, water repellent, no stretch & ultra high tensile. That's how the sheets can be so thin. Carbon fiber is used for standing rigging. The boat is built in carbon.
amazing
What a dreamboat, just what i like, gonna make one in my life
Очень хорошо!
nice kit ... I'd like to see it sail under heavy air
Holy shit, this winch!!
0:33 you could buy my 30 ft fully equipped for transoceanic cruising sailboat with this winch alone …

Hell, just one piece of that deck teak would buy a nice 34 ft sloop!

Why ? Only the engineers who designed it know. All the others just press buttons or sit and watch... LOL.

When does "super" become "mega"? This yacht looks pretty mega to me.

How abt FULL CARBON. Super Mega!
Quite similar to Ngoni... Is this Aglaia the biggest sloop in the world?
She is beauty
maybe some parts are carbon, but the hull itself are not carbon fiber, but aluminum. Of course there can be some sort of a comination.
How fast does she regularly go and what kind of seas can she comfortably handle?
need crew?
Pity about the wind.
can it be single handed? :)

It can. But it is easier with more people.

The sailing is a one man job. Except for cleaning you need a lot more.
does anyone know the song in the background?

Doubt the crew sitting on the windward side has any effect....

People who own such a boat do not want you to see their "private parts", aka interior! ;-)
No seats? They all have to sit on the Gunnels!

+mearcat74 It's a 66m dinghy.
a ship, by any measure.. but sloops arent ships, so shes just a really really really big "sailboat."
It may be perverse but I look at the video at 1:07 and think "what is the point of the crew sitting on the rail?" The weight ratio must equate to a dozen ants moving to the beam on a supertanker!
show me the boat when the wind blows and the sea comes to live
Ok it's big, ok sleek Looks etc., however geve me the J-classes any other day.

хочу такие видосы на руском языке
Try sailing in heavy wether at night with an exposed helm. Not me. Fair weather day sailer.
Музыка лошадиная...
Fucking....wow..
A view from the UK. Nope, not for me. The reason is that the first thing i look for is a definite distinction between crew space and private space. I do not want the crew piloting the boat behind me when i am enjoying my time in the intimacy of my/the owners area. The Perini Navi have a sun deck with helm station and a pilot house which is what i prefer. I would find it uncomfortable with the crew watching me all the time.
windless it doesn't have much interest
Not even a peek inside? No thumbs up.
*slutter rig
It's not a nice as my 1982 35' Jeanneau. I can sail my boat, I can't get near that, and it hasn't got a tiller.
Holy crap, what an incredibly expensive, stupid and useless toy!
No fun to sail This is a only big machine for rich man to play with. No sailor isneeded !

It's the same as within a company you don't want the rich dude get in a workers space it wil end up in a total disaster.
It seems like the owners of theses types of boats build them just to show everybody they have the money and can make it bigger than you can...it lacks the elegant touch of a J-class or S&S designed boat, it looks cold and dead with no personality other than saying I have the biggest piece of unique art work ...there are worse like Bill Gates new bucket but that is to be expected..this is never going to compete in a race other than Antigua perhaps where they will win the biggest Boat in the Harbor...
Worse yatch boat ever! The 'ocean sail 72' is better than this...
yet another example of having alot of money and a small wee wee
