SY SPIRIT OF THE C 64 m KETCH (2003)
Scale. Structure. Seamanship.
Delivered in 2003 as Felicità West and later renamed Spirit of the C’s, the yacht belongs to the generation in which Perini Navi extended its sailing architecture beyond 60 metres while preserving the yard’s recognisable formal language.
Developed together with Ron Holland, the project adapts the established large ketch configuration to substantially greater dimensions, maintaining proportional clarity despite the increased displacement and sail area.
DESIGN IDENTITY
Profile. Proportion. Purity.
The exterior composition retains Perini Navi’s characteristic horizontal reading, with the superstructure integrated into the hull line rather than dominating it. The long waterline and continuous sheer reinforce visual stability while supporting hydrodynamic efficiency.
Interiors by Nuvolari Lenard follow a contemporary approach organised around wide circulation spaces and continuity between interior and exterior volumes, conceived for permanence on board rather than episodic use.
