Zefira was the 7th Dubois design to be built by Fitzroy Yachts and signified a new and appealing development both above and below decks.

At the time of her launch, this 49.7m fast cruising sloop was the largest Dubois Naval Architects had designed without a flybridge. She is of aluminium construction with a bulb keel and a maximum beam of 9.95m.  Zefira’s lines, silhouette and technical performance are something to be admired.

Zefira was built for Italian owners who are wonderfully passionate and artistic. Previously owning an older Dubois-designed sloop, the challenge to us was to combine our extensive experience with a fresh look at style, while still embodying all the features which combine seaworthiness with performance. Comfort below was essential, as was the detail and finish. This has been provided by the inimitable skills of Remi Tessier.

Both the interior and exterior are equally spectacular. This elegant yacht will continue to look contemporary long into her life, well-standing the test of time. An interior Dubois layout styled by Remi Tessier creates a very special ambience and when placed into a Dubois-designed hull, the final result is simply outstanding.
