Ruiying 110

Ruiying Yacht 110 ‘: exceptional
The construction of the Ruiying Yacht 110 has just begun in China. The major challenge for the Berret Racoupeau Yacht Design team in building this one off is to successfully integrate a voluminous and comfortable owner living area whilst maintaining discreet and aesthetic design lines. The challenge has been met. Everything has been designed so that the navigation aboard this unique catamaran is a real pleasure: a truly spacious cockpit-lounge, a huge platform with panoramic view with a relaxation area, a fly-bridge with jacuzzi, jet ski, etc.
This innovatively designed catamaran is the very first collaboration between the architects from La Rochelle in France and the Chinese shipyard for a sailboat of this size.
