FUTUNA cruisers
speed, style and comfort

Whether your plans incorporate ocean passages, joining race events with friends or crew, or just cruising around the Mediterranean there is nothing that beats the pleasure and satisfaction of speed, which remains a safety factor for weather routing. And as the British say: "speed makes a great tactician". With a Futuna sail yacht, you get speed with no compromise on comfort, high standard, and just style. 

The Futuna's are high performance ocean-going blue water cruisers from the design office of Marc Lombard. Our aluminum composite sail yachts incorporate an exceptionally efficient hull on modern lines derived from the 60’ Open round the world racing. The result is a fine entry, maximum beam carried aft, a wide stern section and maximum length at the waterline. The Futuna design brings the state of the art to the cruising world, optimized for small crew handling.

Built with an aluminum hull and partial deck for strength and safety and vacuum-bagged composite sandwich of GRP/closed-cell marine grade polymer foam core for the roof and cockpit for weight savings and performance, the result of this construction technique used in high end luxury yachts is an exceptional cruiser with an excellent weight ratio and the strength to withstand any test. 

The interior is finished to the highest joinery standards, with either honeycomb or marine grade closed cell polymer foam sandwich allowing luxurious accommodations with minimum weights, exceptional rigidity, and durability.
