S/Y P2 Is To Have A Sister

The Perini Navi Group has closed the contract on the second yacht in their 38m (125ft) Racing Line, a performance line that captures comfort, speed and racing ability. The sloop C.2130 is under construction at the Perini Navi Group's Picchiotti shipyard in La Spezia and will be delivered in the 2015.

Compared with her sister ship P2, hull C.2130 has been designed according to a brief for fast and easy sail handling through three semiautomatic electric captive winches. This sloop will have laminated sails and will have a carbon fibre furling boom for performance and safety in all conditions. The hull and superstructure will be built in Sealium, a light weight aluminium alloy that is highly resistant against corrosion. Her displacement is 160 tons while its GT is 171 tons. She will be able to compete at the highest level of competition with limited crew due to her deck hardware and layout.

For the first time a Perini Navi superyacht will feature a "Silent Night" system. This innovative system lets all on board systems run on batteries while the generators are off. When she is running in "Silent Night" mode guests can enjoy a full eight hours of complete silence.

She has a different interior layout compared with P2. The interiors are designed by the Perini Navi design department and have a sporty layout.

The Perini Navi Group has several other yachts under construction at their shipyards. The second yacht in their 60m (197ft) line, sloop C.2218, is due for delivery in 2014 and the first yacht in their 70m (230ft) line is due for delivery in 2015. The third yacht in their 60m (197ft) line can be ready for delivery within two years.
