Baltic 70C

This is a very traditional yacht, a so-called "CLASSIC" as far as the aesthetics are concerned. Both the interior and exterior were given a classic design and this was very much reflected in the wood paneling. The classical style was carried throughout to the very last detail with the joint co-operation between the owner, designer Bill Dixon Design and Project manager David Barwell.

In spite of its very traditional aesthetics this yacht represents the most modern thinking with respect to materials, methods and equipment selected.

One of the challenges with this project was the wood work; there was so much attention to detail. Disguising the carbon and other hi-tech materials was extremely difficult, but still everything had to be handcrafted individually, whilst still maintaining a very high quality throughout. But to us at Baltic it just clarified one important part of this project, which we already knew and that is that we have extremely talented carpenters.

This yacht sailed away from our yard late autumn 1997 in temperatures below freezing with snow and ice on the deck. The weather she is sailing in right now is more pleasant. The owner has done several successful ocean crossings with her.
