Vertigo (Hull No. AY41) is the largest sailing yacht to date from New Zealand builder Alloy Yachts. Designed with modern lines by Philippe Briand, she has a stunningly elegant interior by Christian Liagre Interior Design, whose brief was to render her “Urban at Sea.” Mast and rigging is by Southern Spars, and she has a full suite of North Sails. She has all the bells, whistles and amenities of a mega motoryacht, yet she remains a sailing yacht at heart, with vast teak decks, a low profile and high-performance capabilities.
