Yacht charter in La Trinité-sur-Mer · Alcor — Yacht Classique (1959)

An attractive classic cruising-racing yacht for fast, comfortable sailing from La Trinité or any other port on the Atlantic coast, cruising or taking part in the season's major events: Semaine du Golfe du Morbihan (May 26-31), Rendez-vous de la Belle Plaisance in Bénodet (June 20-22), Voiles de Légende in La Baule (July 26-30), Noirmoutier Classic (August 1-3)... Alcor is very comfortable: the four beautiful guest Scansailins and the crew quarter can accommodate up to 10 people, and the large aft bathroom is even equipped with a real bathtub. The generously glazed saloon and deck saloon, protected by an awning, seat 8 around two large tables. The powerful original Rolls-Royce engine guarantees a cruising speed of 9 knots if the wind fails. But she's also a real racing boat (she won, for instance, the 1970 Giraglia) : the 28 m tall mast and 250 m2 of sail area make sailing experience incomparable, especially at the helm, which is extraordinarily smooth and precise. She will be available for charter for up to 10 days during the 2025 season. She will also be available for co-boating, for around €90 per day per person (depending on the number of people), for a maximum of 8 people, with a limit of 30 people x days over the 2025 season. Please do not hesitate to contact me via the Scansail messaging system if you have any questions. See you soon on board, Alexandre Her history: Alcor II was designed by Englishman Jack Laurent-Giles and built in Italy by the Sangermani shipyard for a Spanish owner. Jack Laurent-Giles is renowned for his many innovations, and in particular for the progress he has made in optimizing sailing and motoring performance. The Sangermani shipyard, founded at the end of the 19th century, has the rare distinction of having only ever built pleasure yachts (no workboats), one-offs (no production runs). Alcor is the largest of the fifteen yachts built by this architect and shipyard partnership. Alcor's focus on performance is reflected in her slender hull, 28 m tall mast, 250 m² of sail area, 17-ton ballast, deep 3.2 m draught and impressive aft deck coffee grinder: all the hallmarks of a racing yacht. And the emphasis on comfort is reflected in the very welcoming deck saloon, the five Scansailins, each with its own washbasin, the three bathrooms, one of which is fitted with a real bathtub, and last but not least, the very powerful Rolls-Royce engine (320 hp). Alcor has undergone virtually no modifications since she was built: the interior fittings are entirely intact, and the engine and the windlass, all original, are still in working order. An unspoiled testament to the talents of the architect and the shipyard, Alcor offers a 60-year leap back in yachting history. She is a listed historic monument and part of the fleet of the Musée Maritime de La Rochelle.
