Kenneth Nyfelt describes the Baltic 62 Semi-
Custom as "a fast cruising yacht, designed for
high performance cruising but also for ease
and simplicity of handling".
The Baltic 62SC project has evolved from the
Baltic 62 Custom currently nearing completion
at the yard, and also the more performance-
oriented Baltic 65, Stig, launched last year.
The Semi-Custom model will be available with
two different deck layouts - single or twin-
cockpit - and two different interior layouts -
owner aft or owner forward.
The single cockpit option is likely to appeal to
owners and families who like to get closely
involved in the sailing and handling of the
boat. The twin cockpit creates an area away
from the sheets and winches, enabling guests
or less experienced sailors to enjoy their
cruising at a distance from the working areas of
the deck.
The keel is available as a standard fixed option
or as a telescopic, lifting keel. The carbon rig
package includes aft-swept spreaders
providing strong support to the mast,
minimising the rig's reliance on the running
backstays.
As with the deck layout options, Nyfelt says the
choice of interior layout is down to the way the
owner intends to use the boat. "Most owners

tend to choose the 'owner forward' option
these days, as this makes for a quieter cabin
away from the noise of the cockpit and main
operating areas further aft," he says.
"However, for the owner looking for a
smoother ride when the boat is at sea, we still
offer the 'owner aft' option."
The styling of the interior is very open to the
owner's tastes and preferences. "At Baltic
Yachts we are used to accommodating a
range of styles, from traditional Scandinavian
teak interiors, to the white, minimalist, modern
styling that has become more popular in
recent years. We think the custom options
available on the Baltic 62SC will give this boat
a very broad appeal."

The Baltic 147 project, Visione, marked a great
step forward in high-performance large sailing
yachts. Almost ten years after her launch, Visione
continues to inspire those in quest of high-
performance blue-water sailing. Indeed, Visione
has inspired us to launch a new model that
reflects many of the Baltic 147's traits, the Baltic
125 Custom.
The B125 will employ the latest techniques and
materials in high-tech, lightweight construction,
and will be available in a number of
configurations. For example it will be possible to
specify lifting or canting keel options, and
different internal layouts with owner-cabin-
forward or owner-cabin-aft variations.
It will even be possible to modify the hull lines
according to the boat's intended purpose,
whether the aim is for ultimate performance and
high-speed planing potential, or for a higher-
volume model designed for greater storage
capacity and more equipment for comfortable
long-range cruising.
While there are many options on offer, what all
variations of the B125 Custom will share is a
drive for high performance combined with
practical solutions aimed at simple, trouble-free
sailing. For example we have designed the
cockpit with the sole in one level, which makes it
easy and safe to move around the cockpit both
during cruising and racing.

Baltic Yachts has started construction of a custom
58-footer designed specifically for cold-water
cruising. With our in-house design team working
alongside judel/vrolijk, the project specifies a
very lightweight long-distance cruiser which will
be used primarily for sailing in northerly waters.
Project manager Mathias Flink says a lot of
thought has gone into the heating and ventilation
systems that will be required to perform in the
extreme cold of the Arctic Circle. "Rather than the
diesel heaters used on most boats, we are
working on a water-based heating system. When
the water temperature is so low, you have to be
careful about positioning equipment in the hull so
as to avoid the risk of freezing and
malfunctioning. And it's important that the drain
tubes in the hull are shorter and more vertical
than normal, so the water doesn't have the
chance to freeze and block the tubes."
With the owner's intention to sail the boat
singlehanded, safety and ease of handling are
high priorities. Low maintenance and good
access to the engine and other equipment are
essential, and the telescopic lifting keel must work
faultlessly. The hull will be built with infused
carbon fibre and the interior will be made of
prepreg carbon composite with a Nomex core.

The Baltic 65, Stig, continues to perform excellently at grand prix regattas
around the Mediterranean. After winning the "Mini-Maxi" division of the Copa
del Rey Audi Mapre in Palma de Mallorca last summer, the judel/vrolijk design
went on to finish 2nd in her class, the Mini Maxi division, at the Maxi Yacht Rolex
Cup in Porto Cervo last September.
Stig has an exciting schedule of regattas lined up for the 2011 season, with the
team planning to compete in at least four of the following:
Volcano Race, Capri, 24-28 May
Giraglia Rolex Cup, St. Tropez, 12-19 June
Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup, Porto Cervo, 2-10 September
Voiles de St. Tropez, St. Tropez, 24 September to 2 October
Rolex Middle Sea Race, Malta, 22 October
Stig is one of the most high-performance boats ever constructed by Baltic
Yachts. Built in carbon fibre, and with the deck only painted to reduce weight
and heeling moment, she is a very responsive yacht with excellent downwind
performance. The yacht is equipped with a three-spreader carbon mast with
seamless carbon rigging to minimise windage.
