The 27.5-metre sailing yacht Atalante I has been sold with Bernard Gallay of Bernard Gallay Yacht Brokerage representing the seller and Pieter van der Weide of Hoek Brokerage representing the buyer.
Delivered in 2009 by Dutch builder Claasen Jachtbouw, Atalante I is the second Truly Classic yacht from only four TC 90s built to date. The sloop was designed by Hoek Design with multiple refits completed in 2014 and 2015, as well as a complete renovation in 2020. Her latest works were finished in 2023.
She accommodates up to nine guests in five cabins, each with its own bathroom. The interior is finished with raised and fielded panelling in the traditional style and includes a comfortable saloon with a large TV and coffee table. There is also a deckhouse saloon forward with a dining table and navigation station where guests can interact with the crew while underway.
Atalante has two cockpits, the aft one for sailing activities with winches to hand and the other, amidships, for guests to relax or enjoy a meal, protected by a bimini that remains in place under sail or by a larger awning when at rest. At anchor, a platform folds out of the hull amidships giving ease of access to embark the tender.
In addition to being an excellent family cruising yacht, Atalante has also scooped some impressive regatta results, achieving second overall in the Palma Superyacht Cup in 2013 and winning the Hoek Design Cup two years running in 2012 and 2013. For windless passages, the MCA-compliant sailing yacht is powered by a single 250hp Lugger engine.
Atalante I was last asking €3,250,000.
