VERTIGO

Alloy Yachts ketch VERTIGO has very beautiful lines, a low sleek hull, soaring masts and flat uncluttered decks. The same clean, open flowing feel is retained in her interiors thanks to her ‘urban at sea’ minimal industrial design by Christian Liaigre. Inside the deckhouse, the saloon displays the palette of creams, blacks and woody browns with low sofas and leather seats. Further forward the space divides, media room to port, dining to starboard. The guest suites are similarly uncluttered and clean, with dark floorboards, walnut cabinetry, and white walls. However, guests will doubtless spend much of their time on deck. Underway, the aft cockpit is a wind-free relaxing spot for a drink – but true sailors will almost certainly want to be in the flybridge cockpit, tucked onto the banquette seating enjoying a drink from the wet bar. Once at anchor, the limo tender is born from the stern lazarette, and stairs are folded out to the swim platform. From here guests can learn to sail the smaller dinghies or take out the kayaks and paddle boards. Gym-lovers will enjoy a workout next to another fold-down balcony with direct access to the sea. For total relaxation, the aft deck is hard to beat: a bank of sun pads slides back to reveal a ten-person Jacuzzi pool just behind the large dining table. Once dinner has been enjoyed, why not lie back on those sun beds and enjoy an outdoor movie? A charter on VERTIGO is guaranteed to be exhilarating and relaxing, exciting and restful, combining the best a sailing yacht can offer with the luxury and style of a superyacht.
