The global interest in large sailing yachts continues through the global recession. Performance Yachts will again be represented at the Monaco Yacht Show in September this year with the PY-100 Liara on display.
Azzura Marine will be representing the PY range on the Australian stand and will be happy to discuss the full range of yachts with potential clients.
Luxury Charter yacht LIARA is a stylish head turning performance sailing yacht which is capable of unrivalled speed and luxurious comfort. Performance Yachts launched the Dixon Yacht Design PY-100 30 m Liara superyacht in 2009, a luxury yacht which combines the latest sailing technology with sophisticated elegance and timeless craftsmanship.
The exterior styling and interior design of S/Y Liara is the work of the experienced yacht design team of Dixon Yacht Design, Southern Ocean Marin (builders), and Robinson Marine Interiors (interior joiner). Liara was built using advanced high-tech composite construction. She is a light to moderate displacement superyacht that will perform at Superyacht Rallies whilst providing lavish comfort for cruising.
This 30m sailing charter yacht sleeps seven guests in three cabins and boasts an attentive and personable crew. Liara’s interior is understated, yet contemporary. There is an abundance of wood trim and natural textures and lighting throughout. Lovely timber detailing means a cool ambience and the designers have maximized living space without compromising functionality.
LIARA’S main saloon is peaceful when relaxing with a book from the library, styling when entertaining and ideal for enjoying a movie while lounging on the plush sofas.
Sailing yacht LIARA‘s decks are streamlined and uncluttered. Her helming area is aft and her spacious cockpit is forward, as completed with a sunbathing space and hammock on the foredeck.
For superior sailing performance luxury Charter Yacht Liara boasts a five spreader high modulus Southern Spars carbon mast as matched with Future Fibers composite rigging. While her hull and deck is 85% carbon for weight saving, her hydraulic lifting keel (with ballast bulb) provides a draft of five meters for excellent windward performance and, when raised, the draft is just 3.5 meters, for fantastic anchoring and marina accessibility.
Liara, the Performance Yachts 100 was selected as a finalist in the “Best Sailing Yacht in 30m to 44m size range” and also for a special “Technology Award” in the prestigious Boat International Media 2010 World Super Yacht Awards.
