Sailing yacht Almagores II launched by Southern Wind

On Sunday 5 May the first hull from Southern Wind's new 102 DS series was launched in Cape Town, South Africa. Commissioned by an Italian owner, this 31.42m sailing yacht has been christened Almagores II .

A successor to the successful SW 100 DS series, which saw nine launches between 2006 and 2009, the SW 102 DS was introduced in mid-2010 by the South African shipyard. The first hull was started a few months later, and the construction of a second hull is already under way with a launch slated for December 2012.

The SW 102 DS is a deck saloon sailing yacht with naval architecture by Farr Yacht Design and general design, exterior and interior styling by Nauta Design. The waterline length of the composite hull was increased by 1.35 metres to enhance its stability and performance.

The SW 102 DS has 17 per cent more interior volume than the SW 100 DS and a layout that accommodates eight guests in a master, a VIP and two twin cabins. However, the owners of the first two hulls have opted for completely different layouts, with owners and guests areas located aft on Almagores II , while the second hull follows the standard design with crew quarters aft and the master cabin forward of the mast.

The 36.3m single mast of the SW 102 DS will allow for a sail area of 477 m², and in light winds she will be powered by a single 305hp Cummins QSB 5.9 MCD engine.

Almagores II will start her sea trials soon, and she will make her official debut at the Monaco Yacht Show in September.

SW102 “Almagores II” Races Away From Cape Town on the “Cape2Rio Transoceanic Regatta”

SW102 Almagores II sailed back to her “birth place” in Cape Town recently to race away in the 16th edition of the Cape2Rio Yacht Race. First raced in 1971, the Cape2Rio is a 3,600 nm transoceanic regatta organized by Cape Town’s Royal Cape Yacht Club. Currently in its 16th edition, this race starts in Table Bay and ends in South America and is the longest offshore race held in the Southern Hemisphere. The race started on a clear and sunny day in 15 knots of westerly wind and dozens of spectator boats gathered to enjoy the show and cheer the teams on as they sailed away from Table Mountain.

While the waters of Cape Town are familiar to Almagores II, there are great unknowns ahead. Teams will have to face the challenges that come with transoceanic crossings and find routes that pass a high pressure zone predicted in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean without extending their courses too much. Over twenty teams are racing in this year’s edition with smaller boats getting a start a week ago and the larger and faster boats starting on the 11th. This part of the fleet ranges from the superyacht SW102 Almagores II to Giovanni Soldini’s stripped down racing trimaran Maserati Multi 70. Just as he did seven years ago for her maiden voyage and transfer from Cape Town to Genoa, the owner will be sailing aboard his yacht for the entire race.

Almagores II will be racing with a crew made up largely of the owners’ friends along with Captain Francesco Donati, who has been with the yacht since her launching. As per her previous participation in the ARC, Almagores II will be racing to raise funds for the Fondazione Theodora Onlus, a charity created to help hospitalised children. All funds raised will go towards sponsoring Dream Doctors, artists who have been trained to work with children and help them play and smile even through their illness. Donations can be made through the link: https://it.theodora.org/it/news-eventi/almagores-ii-theodora. Fair winds Almagores II, it was wonderful to have you back “at home” and we look forward to seeing you again on the other side of the ocean!
