Fidelis Joins Perini Navi Fleet
Perini Navi Group launched Fidelis, the 10th sailing yacht in their 56m series and the 51st yacht in their fleet. Designed by the builder’s Technical and Design Department in collaboration with Ron Holland, the yacht’s hull and superstructure are aluminum with an optimised displacement of 545 t and a tonnage of 497. The ketch sail plan, designed and engineered by Perini Navi’s Mast Division, measures 1,500 sq m.
Both the main and the mizzen masts are in aluminum and are respectively 58.37 and 47.97 m high. The booms are both in carbon fiber and have in-boom furling systems. This yacht provides ample areas for enjoying life on deck with two cockpits that allow owners and guests to enjoy the outdoor spaces.
Refined Interior
Fidelis’ interiors were designed in-house by Perini Navi’s architects and have a contemporary, refined style with simple, clean lines combined with the use of materials such as stained walnut, Wenge, parchment, maple, teak, steel, marble and leather. The main salon, designed as a light-filled open space, is divided into two areas by an unusual central element that houses the steel and Wenge staircase that leads to the lower deck and two elegant sliding glass doors that separate the living and dining areas.
Sisterhood
Perini Navi’s first 56m sailing yacht, Burrasca, was launched in 2003 and since then she has been joined by sister yachts Santa Maria (now Zenji), Rosehearty, Selene, Salute, Silvana, Riela (now Asahi), Panthalassa and Melek.
