Then there’s the Contest guarantee of the highest standards in composite construction and contemporary outfitting; the interior styled by Wetzels Brown Partners.
To match sailing style and intentions, owners are given wide options also in rig and sail plan.
At 19-metres (63-feet), with these wide-ranging options and this being the first yacht in sector of this length to feature identical VIP guest cabins forward and having the possibility of a separated crew cabin, this is the new sweet spot.
Optimised for family and friends sailing, yet with option for crew also. There is the option of three or four double cabins – aft owner’s suite, two or three guest suites forward.
For younger families, the guest suite can be bunk-bedded. The three cabin version also offers the option for a crew cabin forward. Simple but sophisticated short-handed sailing systems, plus in-boom or in-mast reefing, additional option of self-tacking (inner)jib.
All lines including halyards led aft for pedestal control, as well as high performance in all conditions, from light airs to heavy. The new Contest 63CS is the product of the finest Dutch engineering and outfitting, composed of composite structures single-shot vacuum infused, with full Lloyd’s Register inspection and certification.
The Contest 63CS is a newly opened decision point for owners wanting optimum interior volume and cabin plan in a yacht that can still be handled without needing to have paid crew aboard. Unless of course that’s wanted, too! With interior volume as never before, this is big boat sailing made easy.
