Visiona 40 : Cabins layout
New

SY Yara is not just a catamaran; she is a rare example of German craftsmanship, expedition-grade engineering, and ocean-proven reliability. Designed by renowned naval architect Stefan Schulz and built by Baltec Engineering GmbH, this Visiona 40 embodies the philosophy of yachts designed to cross oceans safely, efficiently, and comfortably.

Her full wood-epoxy construction provides exceptional structural strength, excellent thermal insulation, and outstanding long-term durability, far surpassing that of conventional production catamarans.

What truly sets Yara apart is her remarkable pedigree: she has completed two and a half circumnavigations, a testament to her robustness and the meticulous care she has received throughout her life. Yara is an exceptionally well-prepared blue water cruising catamaran, fully autonomous and ready for a new circumnavigation without requiring any major additional investment.
