Giornale della Vela Article – November 7 2024
With so many superboats “on the catwalk” at the latest edition of the Superyacht Cup in Palma de Mallorca, Balearic Islands, there was indeed eye candy to be had.
Maximus, 59-meter masterpiece
But one in particular impressed us, with its proportions, modern-classic look and mammoth gennaker complete with gladiator helmet. We are talking about the 59-meter ketch Maximus, which, moreover, won on her debut at sea in the A category and then, shortly thereafter, set the course record on the Mallorca-Ibiza route, 48 miles in just three hours and 31 minutes.
