Spirit Yachts Asia - New Hong Kong Office

by Stuart Bayliss 15 Nov 2014 12:31 GMT 15 November 2014

Spirit Yachts, world leaders in the design and build of modern classic sail yachts, confirm their first overseas office has opened in Asia, based in premises overlooking Hong Kong Harbour. Spirit Yachts Asia has commissioned a new Spirit 65 which is now in the final phase of build in the UK and will soon be en route to Singapore where it will make its debut at the Singapore Yacht Show. This is a very significant move for a British Yacht builder and signals a very positive and exciting development in the growth of 'modern classic yachts'.

"We're excited to be introducing Spirit Yachts to Asia. We anticipate that our brand new 65′ classic yacht will create a stir at the Singapore Yacht Show in April. The craftsmen in the UK are putting the final touches to her deck and elegant interior and our engineers are working full steam ahead on the hydraulics and electric systems to fine tune her sailing performance. This yacht is state of the art beauty and technology combined. Commissioning her in January will be the start of a very exciting journey." Chloe French, Director of Spirit Yachts Asia.
