New 80m Abeking & Rasmussen project 6505 underway to Germany

<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/327" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Baltic Yachts (Company)">Baltic Yachts</a> has revealed the interior of the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/16783" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Baltic 80 Café Racer #123.93m (78'6&quot;)Baltic Yachts2027">first hull of its new 23.98-metre Baltic 80 Café Racer</a>.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/399045/image/large-6a4af5448d6fb4c8622ece3510e0aeaa.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/399045">Evolving from the Baltic 68 Café Racer concept, the 80-foot model expands the brand’s focus on speed, simplicity, and easy handling into a larger maxi daysailer format. The design showcases a bold, flexible living space that reflects the yard’s performance-driven philosophy.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/399040/image/large-dc3a6cc5c34a7a83361424681e775474.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/399040">Performance-driven design and optimisationThe first hull of the Baltic 80 Café Racer features naval architecture by Javier Jaudenes of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2857" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Surge Projects (Company)">Surge Projects</a>. Externally, the yacht retains the series’ signature performance-led identity, developed through extensive CFD analysis and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/758" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="North Sails (Company)">North Sails</a>’ virtual wind tunnel technology. This results in a lightweight carbon-fibre hull designed for competitive performance in coastal and maxi-class racing environments.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/399047/image/large-ca68ba19522824b1334cd742884e86c6.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/399047">A total of twenty-one hull configurations were evaluated using an advanced dynamic VPP model, enabling designers to refine sail trim and assess full-motion behaviour under varying conditions. The final design combines powerful hull lines with low resistance in light air, while maintaining form stability and control as conditions build. Performance optimisation is further enhanced by a generous J dimension, allowing a larger genoa for improved acceleration and strong reaching performance alongside a dedicated jib-top configuration.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/399048/image/large-cacd9ba2729d515c3f047ddc9cc48f68.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/399048">In addition, two rig setups are available, offering a wide spectrum of sailing styles: from relaxed, family-oriented downwind cruising to fully crewed, rail-down racing. According to the yard, the yacht is expected to compete at the upper end of Maxi Class 3, with a projected IRC rating of 1.480.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/399046/image/large-e5d8157d48c3c132df83c7143a2f7c96.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/399046">Flexible loft-style interior designThe first hull of the series introduces a striking loft-style arrangement, where the galley, dining area and saloon flow into a single open space. The design prioritises light, volume and sociability, creating an onboard atmosphere more reminiscent of a contemporary apartment than a traditional yacht interior.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/399049/image/large-0b668346ea7c430d52595626418f680e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/399049">Rather than committing to a fixed layout, the concept has been intentionally designed to offer flexibility. Owners can opt for a semi-enclosed or fully enclosed galley configuration, while the main saloon can be tailored with either individual lounge armchairs or a more relaxed extended sofa arrangement. This modular approach allows each yacht to reflect its owner’s sailing and lifestyle preferences.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/399050/image/large-0585f9e8a143267419686e85d47f0d77.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/399050">Interior designer Mark Tucker from <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/329" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Design Unlimited (Company)">Design Unlimited</a> noted that the concept “invites the next owner to take it somewhere completely their own.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/399043/image/large-4653d58efe52f51e550d0b90946700f4.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/399043"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/399044/image/large-18b83df8c0f5b2224850118d7fb488d0.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/399044">Drawing on experience from <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/10936" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Raven34.0m (111'7&quot;)Baltic Yachts2023">Raven</a>, the record-breaking foil-assisted 111-footer delivered in 2023, construction of the first hull is progressing using a carbon fibre female mould. The method allows tighter tolerances, reduced fairing, and improved overall performance. The use of prepreg carbon further enhances weight reduction and structural efficiency. The first hull will feature a 6.5-metre beam and a displacement of 29 tons.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/399042/image/large-2c88150ed3813ffab581ec62879f0207.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/399042"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/399041/image/large-0e4d08534bd2b91e9b226151299b8084.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/399041">Owners of the Café Racer 80 series will be able to select from a palette of bold hull colours, including red, yellow, deep grey, and turquoise. Lamination is scheduled to commence in August, following the Finnish summer break, with delivery expected in summer 2027. Male plug construction is currently underway as part of preparation for the female carbon tooling.

Rather than purely focusing on reducing energy consumption, the yacht is reported to be the first of her class to be designed around energy generation. This radical approach allows the yacht to run for up to two weeks on purely renewable sources, without relying on fossil fuels.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/396253/image/large-7447c42b77f8a8f7bc690af39433370f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/396253"><a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/12410" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Project Zero68.85m (225'11&quot;)Vitters Shipyard2026">Project Zero</a> has been designed to honour the owners' appreciation for traditional sailing yachts while introducing a host of bespoke design solutions. Outside, custom elements can be found throughout, from the spoon bow and matte-finished deck hardware to the sculpted stern cap and hand-painted transom finished in a wood-effect treatment. Her notable metallic blue hull is further distinguished by a feather-inspired boot stripe, a reference to the black-browed albatross that served as a major inspiration for her design.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/396256/image/large-a8857968400b95119871dc187c9832f9.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/396256">Looking inside, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/12410" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Project Zero68.85m (225'11&quot;)Vitters Shipyard2026">Project Zero</a> embraces a holistic interior concept centred on natural materials, craftsmanship and owner-focused living. <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/15" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Vripack (Company)">Vripack</a>’s interior rejects highly polished finishes in favour of tactile textures and organic materials to embody nature. Smoked European oak, reclaimed bark-based materials, leathered stone and hand-selected veneers are featured prominently throughout. Natural knots, cracks and grain variations have been deliberately preserved rather than concealed.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/396255/image/large-213cb67058fc8448969608065d402377.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/396255">A unifying design language runs throughout the entire yacht. The designers have employed curved architectural forms, shaping joinery, furniture, structural glazing, and lighting. They further remark that all elements either begin or end in a full radius, creating a sense of continuity between the spaces.The owners' choices can be seen throughout <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/12410" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Project Zero68.85m (225'11&quot;)Vitters Shipyard2026">Project Zero</a>’s design. Her main saloon features a flexible dining table designed to double as a puzzle and craft table, reflecting the owners' hobbies during extended periods onboard. Elsewhere, modular cockpit furniture can be swiftly reconfigured into either lounge or dining arrangements. Meanwhile, electrically operated cockpit windows enable guests to enclose exterior spaces at the touch of a button.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/396257/image/large-90f1c0052c3eb53d6f1ebf5adf3d6cce.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/396257">Accommodation onboard includes four staterooms. Each stateroom is personalised around places of significance to the owners, all taking inspiration from destinations from Italy to French Polynesia. The owner’s suite is arranged around the mizzen mast, which has been wrapped in a bespoke artwork by American sculptor Sienna Martz. Moreover, this area benefits from a dedicated study to support long periods of working remotely while cruising.Further customisation extends behind the scenes, where the traditional full-beam engine room has been eliminated to make room for a concealed service corridor, enabling the crew to move discreetly throughout the yacht while maintaining guest privacy.According to <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/15" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Vripack (Company)">Vripack</a>, the yacht combines hydro-generation through regenerative turbine propellers with more than 100-square-metres of photovoltaic thermal panels integrated into her biminis. These panels generate electrical and thermal energy to power onboard systems, heating and cooling.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/396258/image/large-478db106ff098d1896050a1003af3d87.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/396258">The yacht's sailing performance has also been refined thanks to a collaboration with Emirates Team New Zealand. Through advanced computational fluid dynamics testing, they developed a distinctive topside curvature that reportedly improves sailing speed by 2.5 percent while simultaneously increasing the vessel's electric power generation by approximately eight percent.Currently under construction at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/34" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Vitters Shipyard (Company)">Vitters Shipyard</a>, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/12410" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Project Zero68.85m (225'11&quot;)Vitters Shipyard2026">Project Zero</a> is scheduled for launch in summer 2026.
