The Carbon Ocean 82, Aegir, was built in 2010 in Rhode Island, USA and is the definitive dual purpose Maxi Sailing Yacht. The design team was presented with a blank piece of paper to produce a new generation of cruiser-racer, combining comfort, style and high performance. They did not just succeed - they excelled.
Winner of the International Superyacht Society Design Awards, Boat of the Year 24m-40m, 2011, Aegir broke all the record books on the race track winning the Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup title in the Cruiser-Racer Class (2012) and the Racing Class (2013). This has never been accomplished in the 26-year history of the world's most prestigious gathering of Maxi Yachts and it will probably never happen again; Aegir is both IRC and ORC certified.
Able to be sailed by just 2 crew, MCA coded and available to charter, Aegir is trans-Atlantic capable and has cruised from Palma to Malta (670nm) in only 62 hours, with winds gusting over 40kn and hitting speeds of 22kn+. Constructed completely out of pre-preg carbon, with numerous features not found on other platforms and with over 45% of her weight in her keel, she packs real punch without sacrificing the comforts and luxuries found in the spacious, light and warm interior.
