FREE AT LAST, previously known as Concordia, is a 28.8 m / 94′6″ luxury sailing yacht. She was built in Spain by the shipyard Monty North in 2001.The exterior and interior, designed by Marcelo Penna, reflect an exceptional creative synthesis between the pursuit of maximum comfort and excellent sailing performance.
With a beam of 6.8 m she is powered by MTU engines of 250 hp each giving her a maximum speed of 11 knots and a cruising speed of 10 knots, with engine propulsion. Her sailing performance is given by her sloop sailing system, equipped with a sail area of over 350 square metres.
FREE AT LAST exterior, simple and linear, does not compromise her comfort. Boarding is via a comfortable hydraulic gangway, and from the stern we are invited to proceed towards the comfortable cockpit. Two large steering-wheels at stern, are ideal both for quiet sailing with friends and family but also for competitive regattas where performance is required.
Almost central, and immediately forward of the steering-wheel area, the wonderful teak flush deck includes a comfortable cockpit, characterized by two large multifunctional U-shaped sofas. The cockpit area is ideal for dining or for an aperitif with friends and family. It creates the perfect atmosphere to feel relaxed and on vacation. The two large sofas also guarantee the possibility of using them as a sunbathing area, both with the boat at anchor and during navigation, since the backrests of the sofas create protection from the wind.
FREE AT LAST exterior is equipped with a spray hood for useful wind protection aft of the cockpit area and by two big awnings, one over the cockpit and one at the bow to create cool shady areas.
From the cockpit, through the hydraulic hatch, you can descend a staircase to access the areas below deck.
The large open-space lounge welcomes its guests with a homely atmosphere but at the same time is minimal in style. The warm wood treated with light and modern lines, accompanied by simple and technical deep-blue fabrics, creates a pleasant and comfortable environment for every situation. The whole environment is bathed in natural light from sunrise to sunset, thanks to the large portholes on three sides and two large hatches on the white ceiling.
FREE AT LAST living open space has a large dining table on the right and three sofas with a wide smoking table on the left. A large flat screen TV guarantees great digital entertainment on days less suitable for swimming and diving, or for a good movie in the evening.
Continuing towards the bow, a beautifully lit corridor leads to the guest cabins, ending in the bow with the wide owner’s cabin.
To the sides of the corridor we find the two guest cabins: on the right a cabin with two single beds and the possibility of a third bunk bed; on the left a convertible double/twin cabin (double bed or two single beds to be requested in advance to the crew). Both guest cabins have an en-suite bathroom: sink, shower, toilet and bidet.
At the end of the corridor, at the far bow, is the wonderful owner’s cabin which is extremely spacious and feels much larger than its 29 metres! Equipped with wardrobes and numerous drawers to store personal items, on the right we find a small desk that can be used as an office area, on the left a comfortable sofa that completes the interior furnishings of this luxurious main cabin. The large central bed hides a lovely gem behind: namely access to an anteroom, which from the cabin side, turns out to be the headboard of the bed. The anteroom boasts a glass wall that introduces the two sinks resting on a piece of furniture with simple lines, playing with light and dark colours and decorated with careful leather details.
Finally, beyond the anteroom wall, which also serves as a walk-in closet, we find the owner’s bathroom, made entirely of teak, with the exception of the white ceiling which, as in the rest of the sailing yacht, increases the freshness and brightness. This very large space that houses the bathroom with its spacious shower, gives the guests the impression of being in a private spa.
Aft of FREE AT LAST living area, on the right side, we find a small desk for nautical chart work. On the left, the open kitchen is slightly hidden by the entrance staircase and opens onto a small L-shaped corridor and a few steps, allowing some privacy for the chef while preparing his tasty cuisine.
FREE AT LAST stern is a dedicated to the crew, which consists of the Captain, chef, hostess and mate: an experienced crew of 4 ready to meet every need of its guests. FREE AT LAST can comfortably sleep a maximum of 7 people in 3 ensuite cabins.
