Goetz and Rogers Team Up for New Project
Goetz Custom Boats and Rogers Yacht Design are teaming up to produce a new 82′ cruiser/racer sloop for a UK client. The yacht will feature a contemporary, lightweight, superyacht interior with striking external styling. She has been designed to be competitive under IRC and will be participating primarily on the European regatta circuit. The yacht is scheduled for delivery during the second half of 2009. This project marks the first collaboration between Rogers Yacht Design (best known for their Open Class race boats, Class 40s, and Rogers 46 designs) and Goetz. According to Simon Rogers, “To get the true benefit from this Rogers 82 design, RYD recognised that we required a world class builder. Goetz have won this project in all departments and we are delighted to be working together to produce an absolutely stunning cruiser/racer.
