ALDEBARAN is a 70-foot classic style aluminum sloop from the naval architects of Barracuda Yacht Design, and interior architecture by Franck Darnet. The elegant design harkens back to vessels from nearly a century ago. She features classical lines with a modern underwater profile, bulb keel and hanging rudder. With high performance fractional rigging with runners, and a hydraulic power pack to simplify sailing maneuvers, she is optimized for the passionate and experienced owner who wants to sail with minimal crew. Below is a traditional but simple interior blending lacquered wood and mahogany, ensuite owner’s cabin, a central area with the galley and stern cabin aft. The varnished deckhouse with chart table and lounge area offers plenty of natural light. Separate deck areas for entertainment and a helming station. The deck plan is also simple and classical, made of teak and varnished mahogany with all stainless-steel hardware.
