SY Saudade

Involvement: Technical Management, Design & Engineering

Location: STP, Palma de Mallorca

We took care of the redesign of the cockpit seating area, and the modifications to the helm stations. The old cockpit featured a massive central isle-pedestal with most of the navigation electronics in it, which we made disappear and integrated with the two helm stations. We took care of the pedestal boxes and the button panels design and manufacturing. We redesigned the seating area so it would feature a chaise longue with rearranged locker space, and revised the ergonomics of the area, adding an extra central step into the cockpit, for the owners comfort.

During the yachts yard period we also supported to adapt their basic geometry of the new bowsprit to the as-built bow. We measured onboard and studied the layout of existing elements, tweaking the tube design as necessary to ensure a perfect fit.
