Dutch yard Vitters has announced the delivery of its 44.3-metre sailing yacht W-Magic, which is now en route to Cascais, Portugal according to BOATPro. The project, previously known as hull 3093, was launched from the yard's Amsterdam site in January 2025.
A fast cruising sloop, Magic has a trim grey exterior by US-based Reichel Pugh Yacht Design, with interiors by British studio Design Unlimited in collaboration with Pieter Laureys, TKI.
The sailing yacht has been described as having "modern, dynamic exterior lines" with ample glass and a modern superstructure. A sunbathing pad and two outside seating areas offer plenty of options for al fresco dining.
Expansive deck spaces are found aft and forward, while the transom area can be converted into a large beach club close to the water. The interiors, meanwhile, are described as "contemporary" and include wooden panels and a full-length deckhouse skylight, resulting in living spaces illuminated by ample natural light.
Technical innovations include two "submarine" anchor systems, a "peak shaving" battery system and twin V-drums in the forepeak.
"The strength of this project was our collaboration as a highly cohesive team, where everyone took ownership of their responsibilities while collectively tackling every challenge," said project engineer Jan Albert de Jonge. "The most rewarding part is starting at the drawing board and, in the end, seeing a stunning, fully realised yacht come to life."
Speaking about the project in the past, Vitters’ sales and marketing manager, Bas Peute, said: "The project team worked intensively together to fulfil the owner’s requirements of building a safe and comfortable superyacht that also performs well in all weather conditions."
The Dutch yard has three yachts actively under construction, including the world's first "zero fossil fuel" sailing yacht. An update on the landmark build, known as Project Zero, was provided by Vitters in June 2024.
