WHIMSY
The sailing yacht WHIMSY perfectly embodies the union of performance and luxury. Designed by renowned naval architect Philippe Briand and featuring a refined interior by Franck Darnet Design, this 23.98-metre Performance Cruising Sloop is a true benchmark in her category. Her sleek profile and clean lines reflect a timeless design, while her advanced equipment ensures exhilarating sailing and optimal comfort on board.
WHIMSY was conceived to deliver a unique sailing experience. Thanks to her spacious and welcoming cockpit, perfectly arranged for both relaxation and navigation, she combines safety and comfort. Her large, light-filled saloon, slightly raised, enhances the warm and sociable atmosphere on board. WHIMSY offers three guest cabins with en-suite bathrooms, including two double cabins and one twin, accommodating up to six guests in an elegant setting. The crew benefits from a separate area, ensuring complete privacy for guests.
On board WHIMSY, everything has been designed for pleasure and relaxation: a generous sunbathing area, a swim platform with integrated ladder, and a selection of leisure equipment including a 3.40-metre AB RIB with Yamaha 25 HP engine (2023), an inflatable paddleboard, and a TIWAL 2 sailing dinghy. In terms of comfort, she features a BOSE Lifestyle 38 audio system, a SHARP LCD television, and a galley equipped with a NEFF oven, a MIELE washer/dryer, and a NESPRESSO machine.
WHIMSY is an invitation to travel, an exceptional yacht that will appeal to sailing enthusiasts seeking a high-performance, luxurious yacht ready to cruise.
