The sail plan envisaged when all the canvas is set reaches an as- tonishing 6,600 square metres, this looks defnitely very promising. In terms of performance it will probably make “green” motor yacht owners envious as well as many other yachtsmen. Briand aims to grab a slice of the market by attracting equally “green “ owners but with a difference. The SY 300 has been devised to sail everywhere with min- imum, indispensable use of low impact engines. The ketch is in fact equipped with underwater turbines through which to recharge the batteries installed on board which should guarantee a charging capacity equal to that of a 500 KW generator set when the yacht is sailing at a constant speed of 15 knots. The top speed estimated for this yacht is of approximately 20 knots. Aesthetically speaking the ketch boasts a truly elegant de- sign with well proportioned volumes. Externally the layout offers loads of space with diverse areas in which to relax, sun bathe , and play games. The sun deck comprises a 112 square metre fying bridge to serve as a convivial lounge in which to relax and talk and a dining area seating up to 16. Each of the three decks features a pool. As for the ping there is also a gym which runs full beam across and a interiors, they can be modifed, or custom made in terms wellness centre, a Jacuzzi and a massage parlour . of layout as well as in the choice of fne fabrics and decor.

Designed by Stefano Righini the Grande 95 RPH, as its name suggests (Raised Pilot House), features a half deck dedicated to the helm controls station. This solution was specially conceived to increase the space available for owner and guests and to maximise their privacy with regard to the crew. The layout also benefits from this configuration, with no less than five cabins: the owner’s great suite is forward on the main deck while the other four, all with bath- rooms, are on the lower deck.
