Umberto Felci designed performance bluewater cruising yacht configured for effortless push-button sailing. Hull No.2 of four FY71’s built by CN Yacht 2000.
FURTHER BROKER’S COMMENTS:
From the board of Umberto Felci and with construction by the renowned CN Yacht 2000 shipyard in Italy (now Ice Yachts), MARDOR is the second of four of the semi-custom Felci 71’ line constructed between 2006 and 2008.
First placed into use for the 2007 season, MARDOR boasts full composite construction with hydrid glass/Kevlar vacuum-infused laminates and carbon reinforcements and bulkheads, coupled with a Hall Spars carbon mast complete with carbon fibre furling boom. With all control lines led aft to the helm cockpit and controlled via push-button Cariboni hydraulics or via Harken powered carbon-top winches, MARDOR can be sailed quickly and effortless with the smallest of crews.
Below decks, MARDOR has a versatile interior layout featuring an amidships master double cabin, VIP forward cabin, further aft guest cabin and forward crew cabin. Access below decks can be made via either the aft helm cockpit companionway (with a chart table below decks), or via the main guest cockpit companionway. The beautifully executed interior is finished in light oak with Corian counters and leather upholstery.

OWNER’S COMMENTS:
The objective of MARDOR was to realise a dream ‘To Be Free’, without the dependence on crew. The yacht can be very easily sailed by just two and this is how most of her cruising has been. From MARDOR’s aft cockpit, she is easily controlled using hydraulics, furling sailing and powered winches, and from this cockpit, you can also easily and quickly access the navigation station and the machinery spaces.
MARDOR is a beautiful boat to sail, especially to windward where she has a very soft and kindly motion through the seas, while downwind, her furling drifter sail or gennaker offers an enviable turn of speed allowing MARDOR to eat up the sea miles quickly and without fuss or drama. As a boat to have family adventures and potentially circumnavigate the globe, MARDOR would be a fantastic candidate.
DESIGNER’S COMMENTS:
All four examples of FY71 Fast Cruiser are characterised by a “Mediterranean” typology, created for living comfortably both inside and on deck.
Starting from the same basic hull different deck designs have been studied in order to satisfy both tastes and racing ambitions.
MARDOR is one of the most modern solutions, characterized by a wide stern deck, a very generous rigging cockpit located fairly well aft and intended to give greater efficiency during long offshore cruisers. The electronic devices are extremely comprehensive, and the interiors are classic in style, in line as far as possible with the requirements and tastes of the owner.
