The Marten 49 is a state of the art racer/cruiser from the famous Reichel Pugh drawing board and incorporates the best in technology, luxury, comfort and speed. No expense was spared in the construction of this magnificent yacht.
Launched in 2008, this Marten 49 with the hull, deck, mast, boom and bulkheads made from carbon fibre and foam sandwich construction for maximum strength yet minimum weight. A fast and comfortable family cruising yacht, very competitive at regattas, yet can be sailed by just two people.
The hydraulic lifting keel provides maximum draught for optimised upwind performance and reduced draught for access into shallow waters, harbours and bays. Wherever possible, halyards and sheets are cleverly concealed underdeck. Weight saving custom carbon fibre mast and boom delivers superior strength and stiffness. The retractable centre-line carbon bow prod is for effortless flying of spinnakers yet virtually invisible when retracted. Flush carbon hatches are strong, light and durable.
The attention to detail on this yacht is excellent with customised fittings and truly innovative design features especially the fold away anchor/ bow roller and retractable prodder to name just a few.
