Accommodation:
The yacht is light and airy throughout with the use of an unusual combination of light woods; stainless steel trim, teak hatch surrounds and white headlining. This look was specifically designed for the yacht by Gae Aulenti, the famous Italian interior designer and architect who designed, among other things: Le Musee d'Orsay in Paris; the Contemporary Art Gallery at the Centre Pompidou in Paris; the Palazzo Grassi in Venice; and the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco. Recent modernisation of the interior detailing and in particular the “head and shower” areas has improved the yacht even further.

Remarks
PACIFIC WAVE is a very strongly built, superb sailing yacht which has been set up to sail quickly and easily, with few crew. Her designer interior layout is ideally suited for charter use and is exceptionally light and airy.
The yacht benefits from substantial refits and upgrades carried out in 2003 and further in 2005 – the latter being done at Pendennis Shipyard. In 2006 further interior and detail upgrades were carried out in Palma with a systems re-fit in Gosport in 2008.
She is MCA classified for charter.
She is, quite simply, exceptional.
