About Luxury Sailing Yacht ELEONORA:
Luxury sailing boat ELEONORA is another classic racing yacht schooner originally designed by the wizard of Bristol, Nathanael Greene Herreshoff. Nat revolutionized the world of yacht design at the beginning of last century, producing a number of America Cup winners between 1893–1920, just before he died. Thanks to the new owner, we can witness a spectacular majesty and grandeur of this superb classic yacht once again. The original schooner, Westward as it was called back then, achieved her ultimate triumphs immediately after her launch, as the fastest schooner in the world at the time. As a result, she won several trophies sailing very successfully against yachts such as Lulworth or Meteror II.
With her clean and vast deck, most modern interior from Heine Deelstra & Hans Ritzema of Gaastmeer Ship & Yacht Design and state-of-the art amenities, ELEONORA is also an excellent charter yacht for clients who seek more than just a luxury crewed charter, but also a piece of history that comes with it. The current ELEONORA is just over a decade old, yet classifies as a genuine classic yacht, a type of boat often favoured by the traditionalist amongst yacht charterers. Her timeless and elegant design, coupled with beautiful sight when under full sails, offers something untouchable, which just does not transpire within a modern yacht. In people’s minds, there is an instilled assumption that a classic yacht would most likely offer an unsightly, old-fashioned interior. With ELEONORA and other similar yachts, this simply is not the case.
ELEONORA does not simply follow Westward’s heritage of big racing yacht schooners, she also provides one with ultimate comfort and unforgettable experience, be it a racing in a classic regatta or as a luxury crewed charter. Seducing with unparalleled opulence, this yacht is as modern as it can get with her interiors displaying the elegance of an old age with many of the fittings specially commissioned for her. With her super yacht crew of 9, the service on board is also of an exceptionally high standard. Add to this excellent value for money and you are certainly in for a treat as one of the best yacht charter options available. With the up to date facilities on board, she offers a modern combination of tradition, elegance and security guaranteed by the state-of-the-art navigation and communication tools found on board. We recommend chartering ELEONORA during the most popular periods in the year so as not to avoid the disappointment.
