CEFEA
CEFEA is a 33.77 m Sail Yacht, built in Italy by Solaris Yachts and designed by Monaco Yacht Tempations – delivered in 2020.
A sailor since childhood, CeFeA’s owner knew exactly what he wanted from his new boat resulting in a collaborative process that yielded a 34 metre with performance and family comfort.
From the owner, “I like to sail in the Mediterranean where the wind is often light in the summer. Even though I don’t race, a performance boat means not having to turn on the engine to go somewhere. With my new boat, I can start sailing in a light breeze, and in just eight knots of wind I can go 10 knots.”
He can also do that without a lot of crew, thanks to an easy and carefully thought out sail plan. To make manoeuvring easy, there is no square top main and a long bowsprit. To offset the resulting sail area reduction, they chose a generous high-modulus mast with an upwind sail area of 618 square metres. The jib is self-tacking, while the mainsail can be hydraulically set. CeFeA can tack and jibe with only two crew at the helm. A furling staysail completes the upwind kit, while a code zero, also with furler and tack adjuster, gives the boat more power for reaching. Completing the sailplan is an A2 gennaker with snuffer for a downwind sail area of 1,220 square metres.
