Antoine Larricq from Fraser Yachts invited a bunch of us onboard his sales central, FRIDAY STAR yesterday afternoon for a seatrial / funsail. She was built at CMN in 1993, and refitted completely in 2005. With three equal masts and over 400m2 of sailarea, she was built for speed.
It was a great afternoon despite the light winds. I can imagine the yacht being very quick when fully powered up.
Anyway, turnout was not bad, but certainly it would have been nice to see more brokers show up. The captain and the crew did a fantastic job in preparing the yacht for our visit (THANKS) , which takes some time. Even more so in the winter months when yachts generally are shut down for regular maintenance.
The interior design of the yacht was by the owner, which is brilliant. Modern, artistic, all the makings of a loft appartment on Fifth Ave.
This is the Master Cabin which gives an idea.
