NEW PRODUCTS Akilaria 9.50: a small Class 40 Following the success of the Akilaria in Class 40 (fifteen models have already been made), the MC Tech yard in Tunisia has launched the Akilaria 9.50 m designed by the Lombard team. This attractive racing machine designed to conform to the new rules for 9.50 clearly resembles her elder sister nevertheless, particularly with her angled lines and her ocean adventurer look. You will be able to see her for yourself at the Paris Boat show, where both these boats will be on display. In terms of their build, they are identical: balsa sandwich for the hull and foam for the deck, all infused with a vinylester resin. The boom and the mast are made of carbon, the lateral rigging is a rod and the longitudinal is made of fibre. So the deck and rigging is clearly destined for racing, and the latter is indeed much bigger proportionally than on a Class 40 taking into account the displacement, which is close to 2.7 T (the minimum allowed), and she is more of a cruiser inside with generous headroom, separate toilets, a welcoming mess and double bunks on each side at the stern. Compared to the one-design Figaro 2 also designed by the Lombard studio, this new racer is wider, with more sail, is more powerful and so theoretically faster. Her draught (2.40 m) is 30cm more than the yacht from Vendée and her ballast tanks hold almost twice as much water. The 9.50 is sold by Kervilor as is the 40foot boat. Didier Corre, the head of the yard in la Trinité, told us he has had a lot of requests for information about this boat, the price of which, given its size, is much lower than that of a Class 40, while offering similar or indeed greater excitement. All that remains to be done is to find or set up an event to launch the class, like the Rhum and the Transat Jacques Vabre have done for the Class 40.
