Important milestones have been reached at Pegasus Yachts, the young Slovenian boatyard that in recent years has distinguished itself for the construction of the Pegasus 50, a sleek sailboat with a contemporary design that has gained significant appreciation on the market. Not surprisingly, hulls no. 8 and 9 have already been launched.
Pegagus 50 #8 is also the first model with three cabins, i.e. with an extra cabin compared to the standard design. The latter is located on the port side of the boat, named “Maya” and furnished with wonderful interiors in natural oak, instead of the classic teak. With its hull in a beautiful silver gray colour, this fascinating semi-custom Pegasus 50 is therefore ready to sail and be admired in the Mediterranean Sea and beyond: easy to handle, lightweight and high-performance, this wonderful 15-metre sailboat is able to travel around the world hassle-free, even with just one person on board. Indeed, Pegasus 50 is a sailboat designed specifically to be single-handed, as well as boasting oceanic “Category A” certification to withstand winds exceeding 40 knots and waves more than four meters high. The ballast percentage of the Pegasus 50 is also significantly higher than other boats in the same category. Not long ago, the victory in the Ostar, a very tough regatta reserved for sailing boats with a crew of just one person, demonstrated the extraordinary reliability of the Pegasus 50 as a fast cruiser.
But the Slovenian shipyard is already looking ahead. Not even time to enjoy the launch of Maya, that they have returned to work on another jewel: it is called Sine Finis and it is the ninth hull of Pegasus 50, now in the final phase of construction. This boat will in fact be ready to set sail by the end of 2023 with destination United States, the country of origin of her owners. But with a little luck, we will be able to see Sine Finis whizzing by near our waters too: the owners are in fact planning a sea voyage of over a year in the Mediterranean, before tackling the long Atlantic crossing. Nothing better to respect the solemn name of this vessel: “sine finis” in Latin means “without borders”, just as the ninth Pegasus 50 is preparing to do in her upcoming cruises. Between the large interior below deck, the cockpit and the lounge connected to each other to move easily from one room to another, the navigation comfort on board the Pegasus 50 is absolute and the visibility of the sea is truly amazing, just like a superyacht.
In addition to building its boats, Pegasus Yachts is also implementing its commercial network. In fact, the news of a new US representative of the Slovenian shipyard came just a few days ago: it’s Nicolas Jonville, a new reference for all those who want to purchase a Pegasus Yachts in North America, both in Canada and in the United States. No one can act as a testimonial for these boats better than Mr. Jonville: in fact he is the owner of the “Sine Finis”.
