The new Mylius 72 offers plenty of scope for customisation, along with impressive attention to detailThis enormously powerful and spacious water-ballasted Shaun Carkeek design is intended to appeal to those who want to be competitive on the Mediterranean\u2019s regatta scene, and also want to enjoy relaxed, fast cruising with family or friends.
\nWide beam of 6.2m creates a yacht with enough interior volume for civilised accommodation, while prepreg carbon fibre construction keeps displacement down to only 23,500kg. The Mylius 72 is therefore a rare dual-purpose yacht with an appealing blend of high performance, comfort and style.
\nThe Carkeek-designed Mylius 72 targets competitive Med racing as well as luxury fast cruising
\nTwin rudders promise easy control even when pushed hard, while the lifting keel has a very deep 5.7m draught when lowered. In addition to the hull\u2019s high inherent form stability there\u2019s a massive 1,000lt of water ballast \u2013 equivalent to a dozen people on the rail.
\nCarkeek spent a large amount of time on minimising both aerodynamic and hydrodynamic drag, hence the retractable anchor and propeller shaft, as well as the low-profile coachroof and reverse bow profile.
\nThe very crisp deck styling is complemented by a retractable bimini and removable cockpit table that help to make for a quick conversion between racing and cruising modes.

\nInterior designers Parisotto+ Formenton Architetti created spacious layouts in a clean minimalist style. The version proposed by the yard has three cabins with private bathrooms, including a master cabin forward, plus a fully equipped galley, spacious dinette and a day head. In the centre of the yacht, the keel box is flanked by a Pullman berth on one side and an office area on the other.
\nConstruction of the first example, which is still in need of an owner, is already well under way at the Piacenza shipyard in northern Italy.
