on deck
On stepping onboard Matelot, the quality of build, attention to detail, styling and strength of the yacht are evident. From the flush finished deck and dark blue hull to the low profile saloon windows to the towering carbon rig, Matelot is a yacht that will turn heads through her styling and sail places in safety and comfort, with speed.

The ergonomically designed guest cockpit which can sit six in absolute comfort and safety is well protected by the coamings. The large cockpit table contains a generous fridge ensuring ice cold drinks at any time. This cockpit is positioned well clear of the working area of the yacht meaning guests can relax without being disturbed. Back aft a working cockpit with two steering positions offer a superb view of the sails when underway. Each sleek, custom designed and profiled pedestal is packed with instruments including a combined chart plotter and radar in addition to controls for the cockpit speakers and many deck lights.

Aft of the main cockpit, the transom is lowered by the push of a button via twin hydraulic rams giving a large swim platform from which to prepare for a dip in the turquoise waters or relax before trying out the watersports. In addition, a hydraulic passarelle is tucked into the transom when not in use, which when extended allows guests to be on the dock within seconds of mooring stern to in harbour.

Matelot is equipped with hydraulic furling on the non overlapping headsail with a powerful fully battened mainsail. All winches are push button hydraulically controlled. The powerful Quantum sails mean the yacht can happily sail in excess of 10 knots and guests are more than welcome to take the helm or trim the sails or sit back and let the crew sail them to their next chosen anchorage.

With a bimini over the guest cockpit that can be kept up under sail, guests can either stay in the shade or soak up the sun. At anchor a large awning can be set protecting guests from the sun. With extensive, uninterrupted and flush teak deck guests have many areas from which to chose to relax and sunbathe.
