The HH52 is available in either the Forward Helm and Cockpit version or the traditional Dual Aft Helm version, allowing the owner to tailor the sailing experience to his or her preferences. Exceptional craftsmanship and industry leading fit-and-finish is evident throughout, with foam core furniture and exceptional joinery, top of the line fixtures, Corian countertops and Bosch electric appliances standard. Cabinet locks are cleverly hidden in the modern design, and an optional pocket TV can deploy and spin to face the viewer. With five different color combinations that vary from traditional to modern, you can pick and choose the look and feel that best suits your lifestyle.

The inside-outside concept simply is BALI. The up-and-over door and the open-plan interior allow you to enjoy the catamaran’s entire volume in any conditions. In the open position, the view is limited only by the horizon, while remaining well insulated and protected from the sun if you’re sailing in the tropics! The door lowers and you stay dry and warm inside, in a perfectly sealed space and not sheltering under plastic sheets.

Space optimization is what it’s all about: making spaces and functions usable at all times, rather than dividing them up so that they can only be used partially!

The aft deck offers a real beach club with a hydraulic platform that can be added for a tender or for swimming. It also means you can move from one side of the boat to the other at the stern, thanks to its integral deck!

The U-shaped galley facilitates relaxed and safe food preparation while at sea. Two galley fridges/freezers and a cockpit fridge have drawers for easy access, with an additional neat top-loading deep freezer. Perfect for gourmet cooking!

The gimbaled settee and saloon table transform life when the boat is heeled. This impressively simple arrangement can be locked upright or at 10 degrees in either direction, creating an almost level seating area and table on each tack.

SAILING:

The Pegasus 50 is designed for easy shorthanded, long-distance cruising.

Modern hull lines, light displacement, optimized carbon mast and sail plan design, plus a strong, high-quality build process, combine to make the Pegasus 50 an effortless and fast sailing yacht.

The sail area is optimized for 15-20 knots of wind, for easy handling. From 15 knots TWS on, a self-tacking J2 and full mainsail are comfortable upwind configurations. At 20 knots TWS / 100 TWA, with full mainsail and J1, the Pegasus 50 is reaching 12.5 knots boat speed while surfing waves yet sailing safely with the autopilot steering.

For downwind sails, enjoy the furling Code 0 and modern furling systems with torque rope for the asymmetric gennaker. Both furled sails can be kept hoisted for easy handling while cruising.

The hard top and glass windshield protect the cockpit from the harsh environment, including excess heat from the sun. The foldable side wings encapsulate the cockpit from three sides and protect the crew from low sun or rain, even while sailing.

Reinventing the sailing yacht 50’s category. Welcome to Bluewater Brilliance, welcome to the Pegasus 50!

Exhibitor Description:

We are proud to present the Sirius 35 DS for the first time at a U.S. boat show. While several of these yachts have already been delivered to happy owners in the United States, this marks our official introduction to the North American show scene—and we’re excited to be here.

The response from the U.S. and Canadian markets has been outstanding. In fact, almost all Sirius 35 DS yachts scheduled for delivery in 2025 are heading to North America. This is an exciting and important new chapter for us, and we’re delighted to see how warmly our yachts are being received.

What sets Sirius apart is our unique Deck Saloon concept, offering a true 360-degree panoramic view from the comfort of the saloon. It’s not just a design feature — it transforms life on board, making time spent below deck as enjoyable as sailing itself.

Our twin keel configuration combines sailing performance with unmatched versatility and safety, especially for shoal-water cruising and drying out. Every Sirius yacht is custom-built in Germany with meticulous attention to detail, using only the highest quality materials and craftsmanship—something you’ll feel in every corner of the boat.

The Sirius 35 DS is more than a yacht; it’s a home at sea, designed for serious cruising, long-term comfort, and those who appreciate thoughtful engineering.

We invite you to come aboard and experience the difference for yourself.

HERITAGE

Yacht sizes of around 78 feet, quite a central measure for the Swan range, are a watershed between the world of performance cruisers and that of maxi yachts. This means that the yachts in this family have all the features and amenities of a Maxi.

Over the years, Nautor has developed different models to meet its customers’ needs. The most representative yachts in this range include the legendary Swan 76, the latest in the long series of yachts signed by Sparkman & Stephens, and also the only one in this family a ketch. With his Swan 77, German Frers touched on the apex of elegance, in the era of large maxi IOR models. This has ensured success on the market as 10 units were sold.  With a further two 80foot models, launched in 1999 and 2010, Nautor focused more on shapes geared towards performance, returning to pure cruising with the 75-foot models. Within this scenario, the new Swan 78 is an evolution for the period, whilst still remaining faithful to the tradition of great ocean cruising Swan models.

DESIGN

All of Nautor, s know-how and experience in racing and cruIsIng yachts have been incorporated into the Swan 78, a direct descendant of the original Swan 80 and 82 models of the past. She is slightly shorter overall – in order to meet the EC 24.00 metre length overall limitation – beamier and more powerful. The modern hull lines, including a wide stern above the waterline, twin rudders and racing oriented keel design, are a reflection of the rapid evolution of yacht design during the past years, propelled by the experiences made on round-the-world races and other offshore events. The new boat is faster, safer, easier to control and, as a result, more comfortable at sea. The keel options include deep telescopic lifting, fixed deep and fixed shallow possibilities yet maintaining stability, the same rudder configuration and standard sail plan.

The same could be said of the deck with its modern design, uncluttered surfaces and straightforward, simple solutions to sail handling and life at sea. The appearance is that of neatness and efficiency. The interior features an Owner Forward layout. Centered around the main saloon and engine room, this layout offers 3 cabins plus the master: one double berth VIP and two twin berth layouts.

The interiors set up allows for side-by-side bunks on the second and third guest rooms. Crew accommodations for two are ample and functional.
