Were
very proud of this yacht! A combination of our naval architecture
and styling, married to an interior by one of Germanys foremost
interior designers and excellent build quality by Brune
Yachtbau makes this first Opus a hugely impressive vessel
by anybodies standards.
The brief was to create a yacht with classic exterior lines,
an interior with the space of a modern yacht and very good
sailing performance. The first yacht has a schooner rig
which will be easily handled by a short handed crew using
manual winches but, the Opus can also be supplied with sloop
rig and electric or hydraulic sail handling equipment. For
lovers of more traditionally styled yachts here is the best
of both worlds; a spacious, beautifully designed interior,
clothed in a classic exterior above the waterline, with
a modern underbody below to provide performance.
More details of this lovely yacht can be found at the builder
and interior designers web sites, the links to which are

the 55, which is in the planning and early design stage.
