Garcia’s first yacht in Exploration 60 features aluminium hull and deck structure

French shipyard Garcia Yachts, specialised in aluminium blue water cruising sailboats construction, has reportedly begun developing the first hull in its flagship Exploration 60 range.

The key features of the vehicle include an aluminium hull and deck structure, as well as aluminium forward and aft bulkheads.

The coach roof is fitted with large glass panels to allow passengers to enjoy a panoramic view of the outside world. A totally flush deck, refined exterior lines, and an interior helm station are some of the other notable features of the yacht. The versatile transom area doubles up as a diving platform, boarding area or bathing beach.

The Exploration 60 can be operated with or without crew. It offers three layouts in two different interior styles. The “standard” layout features two cabins, the “family version” three equally sixed cabins, while the “owners version” has the spacious owner’s cabin aft and second cabin forward.

Speaking about the flagship model, Garcia managing director Marc d’Arbigny said: “The Exploration 60 is designed and optimised to sail anywhere in comfort and exceptional safety.”
