Ahimsa (ex Aglaia)

Overview

Launched in 2011, this 66m was originally named Aglaia and was built at Vitters Shipyard in Holland.

The largest Dubois design launched yacht to date, featuring one of the tallest masts in the world, is an incredible and exceptional design.

She features numerous elements of design engineering never before seen, her carbon mast towers 83m and is the largest ever produced by Southern Spars.  We designed her with targets such as hoisting the mainsail in less than two minutes and tacking the boat within 30 seconds; and her builder, Vitters Shipyard, developed an innovative staysail furler for her.

Her original name, Aglaia is that for the Greek goddess of beauty and splendour, very fitting for this gorgeous yacht.

The glass saloon windows have an extreme three dimensional curvature, giving her one of the sleekest profiles we have ever created. She differs in looks dramatically from the typical Dubois styling

Chief among her charms is the painting by Norwegian artist Magne Furuholmen on her Code 1 sail, which at about 3,600sqm (both sides of the 1,787sqm sail) is one of the largest fabric paintings in the world.
