Introduction to Maritime Excellence
The Atlantic Yachts 51 is an exemplary vessel designed for ocean exploration, blending traditional craftsmanship with modern technology. Measuring 16.68 meters in length and 4.58 meters in width, this semi-custom aluminum cruiser caters to the needs of yachtsmen who appreciate both performance and comfort. The vessel is built with an eye for detail and quality, offering an unparalleled sailing experience that combines robustness with elegance.
Exceptional Design and Structure
Constructed using high-grade aluminum, the Atlantic 51 offers durability and a lightweight frame that enhances seaworthiness. The incorporation of a strong but light hull allows it to navigate various water conditions with ease and safety. Designed by Dick Zaal and Atlantic Nieuwbouw BV, the vessel showcases an engineering marvel that merges tradition with cutting-edge design principles, capturing the perfect harmony between form and functionality.
Detailed Specifications of the Hull and Steering
The Atlantic 51 features a well-thought-out build with a draught of 124 cm and a maximum draught of 324 cm, which is ideal for diverse maritime scenarios. The waterline length of 1,458 cm contributes to its superior stability and performance on water. Steering the Atlantic 51 is a breeze, thanks to the Jefa double steering system comprising two single-spoke, leather-covered stainless steel wheels. Each wheel is equipped with its own compass, ensuring accurate navigation and control.
Innovative Lifting Keel System
One of the standout features of the Atlantic 51 is its advanced electrical/hydraulic lifting keel system. This system employs a double-working stainless steel cylinder, powered by a 2kW generator, along with a manual backup system. Operators can effortlessly manage the keel through control switches conveniently located at the steering area, enhancing the vessel’s flexibility and maneuverability.
Spacious and Comfortable Accommodation
Designed for comfortable extended voyages, the yacht’s interior reflects a seamless blend of style and utility. It boasts a spacious shower cabin with a stainless steel basin, intricately designed with a mixing tap and shower hose for convenience. The toilet room is equipped with a Lavac vacuum toilet paired with a Hendersen pump, and waste management is simplified with an installed blackwater tank. A greywater tank features an automatic float switch and a Whale Gulper 22 electrical discharge pump for effective waste handling. Furthermore, the yacht utilizes an automatic water pressure system, making onboard life more convenient and luxurious.
Engine Performance and Electrical Systems
Powered by a single Steyr MO114 inboard engine with 108 horsepower, the Atlantic 51 assures reliable and efficient performance. This engine combines modern technology with precision engineering to deliver exceptional power output and fuel efficiency, ensuring smooth operations during passages. The electrical systems onboard include high-performance Aqua Signal navigation lights designed for safety and visibility. These lights, positioned strategically on the masthead and stern, provide comprehensive lighting in all directions, ensuring safe navigation even in challenging conditions.
Advanced Mast and Rigging
Rigging by Hall Spars provides the Atlantic 51 with an impressive set of high-performance features. The tapered aluminum mast has a length of 21.45 meters, coated in classic AWLgrip white for protection and aesthetics. The mast includes various provisions for halyard attachments, with welded-in masthead crowning and aluminum sheaves designed to facilitate smooth sail operations. The boom is equally advanced, featuring a Frederiksen series outhaul track and provisions for easy attachment of lazy jacks – critical for efficient sail handling.
Comprehensive Sails and Sail Systems
The Atlantic 51’s sail system comprises high-quality, durable dacron sails, designed for both flexibility and robustness. The mainsail is an expansive 72.30 m² area with integrated battens and three reef points, offering exceptional cruising quality. Complementing the mainsail are the furling Yankee and staysail, crafted to fit the Furlex 300S furling system, enhancing control and ease of use. The sail configuration enables the yacht to reach optimal speeds while maintaining stability and agility across a range of sea conditions.
Deck Equipment and Safety Features
Crafted with a keen focus on safety and performance, the Atlantic 51 is equipped with Andersen sheet winches, providing reliable and efficient sail handling. Key deck features include a robust mainsheet system from Ronstan, designed for precision and ease of handling, and fully rigged with control line sheaves and blocks to enable seamless sail adjustments.
