Pendennis is pleased to announce that in partnership with Ron Holland Design and Palm Beach Yachts International, work on a new 46 metre performance cruising ketch will start in the early spring of 2009.
Ron Holland commented, “this new project incorporates the latest thinking from the Ron Holland studio for a fast, comfortable cruising yacht. During our design development program, we incorporated our client's request for interior appointments that reflect classic yachting style with the very latest sailing performance technology." Three staterooms and a study will provide the owners and their guests with accommodation for up to 12, with a further four cabins forward sleeping 8 crew.
The owner's representative Duane MacPhail of Palm Beach Yachts says “We have chosen Pendennis because of their fine history and experience in the superyacht industry. We have been delighted with the project progress so far and look forward to working with the designers and engineers throughout the building phase.”
With the hull construction beginning early next year and the yacht due to be launched in December 2010, it is a welcome addition to the Pendennis portfolio as the yard continues to go from strength to strength despite the current economic global climate affecting the industry. Joint Managing Director Mike Carr adds “We are extremely pleased to be working with one of the best designers in the game, Ron Holland, to bring this exciting new project to life at Pendennis. We look forward to delivering an outstanding yacht to the owner in late 2010.”
