YBreeze 75 : A superlative daysailer from Greifswald

Michael Good

 ·  29.07.2023

The yacht, which is almost 23 metres long but only 5.60 metres wide and built entirely from carbon fibre, is not intended as a blue water vessel, but as a pure daysailer for relaxed afternoons on the water with friends. At least that's how the shipyard puts it in the project presentation.

The concept is brimming with special features, especially in terms of the design on deck. The most striking feature: a deep, continuous and stepless channel runs around the ship between the cabin superstructure and the bulwark, similar to large luxury motor yachts. A railing is no longer necessary with this walkaround. Aft, the deck is largely unobstructed and extends continuously on both sides up to the high bulwark, the sides of which can be folded down hydraulically at the rear. Together with the hydraulically extendable and lowerable bathing platform, this turns the aft deck into a huge playground in the anchor bay. In addition, numerous "toys" such as jet skis, surfboards and inflatable gadgets can be easily stored in the yacht's huge aft garage. What's more, a complete outdoor pantry with barbecue, fridge and sink retracts from the cockpit floor as if by magic at the touch of a button.

The design from Maurizo Cossutti's studio is also consistently geared towards strong performance under sail. This is reflected not only in the hull made entirely of carbon fibre, but also in the high and very sporty sail plan with carbon mast and self-tacking jib. A gennaker or a code zero is attached directly to the bow; surprisingly, a bowsprit is not provided. The YBreeze 75 can also be equipped with additional tanks for water ballast for even more potential in the wind. The tanks on the sides of the hull, which are filled with water on the windward side, hold around 1,000 litres. They are intended to compensate for the lack of weight of a crew of several people on the high side, and the shipyard can also reduce the amount of ballast in the keel. In addition to the fixed keel with lead bomb in two draught variants, the yacht can also be equipped with a telescopic keel on request. This enables a flexible draught of 2.50 metres to a maximum of 4.00 metres.

The concept implementation on deck focusses on simple handling for a small crew. All sheets, halyards and trim lines are led back to two large winch consoles in front of the helm stations, where they can be easily operated by the helmsman alone. And, of course, all the functions for trimming the sails can be operated electrically at the touch of a button.

As the customer wants. Almost anything is possible

When it comes to the interior, YYachts customers can decide for themselves how they want the boat to be fitted out and in what visual design. The shipyard provides various basic layouts for this, but can also cater for special requests. A standard layout provides for three very generously furnished double cabins with their own bathrooms, a huge galley and an impressive large saloon. The styling below deck was created by star designer Gabriel Chipperfield's Studio Wendover in London in collaboration with the shipyard's own design team.

YYachts was founded in 2015 by former Hanse boss Michael Schmidt to build the "Cool Breeze" for himself, a Brenta 80 yacht. The small series project Michael Schmidt Yachtbau has since grown into an internationally renowned shipyard that has managed to deliver no fewer than 41 yachts with lengths between 70 and 90 feet in just eight years. YYachts' current portfolio includes the Y7, the Y8 and the Y9, three types that are offered as part of semi-custom projects. The shipyard in Greifswald is now expanding the programme even further with the YBreeze 75 mega-daysailer. The keel of the new ship is expected to be laid soon. As you would expect, however, the management is keeping a low profile when it comes to announcing a possible price.

First look: YBreeze 75ft daysailer

• Toby Hodges
• August 7, 2023

YYachts' brand new YBreeze is a 75ft daysailer designed to be ultra clean, while still being fun and easy to sail... it certainly looks the part

Product Overview

YYachts has unveiled a fascinating new 75ft luxury daysailer concept, the YBreeze. It’s founder Michael Schmidt, the veteran racing sailor, industry pioneer and former Hanse Yachts owner, is known for his innovation, particularly with a focus on making yachts simple, fun and approachable. The YBreeze YB75 strips things right back to these very fundamental elements.

It is designed to be ultra clean and easy to sail. The sale of each boat will even include a crewmember to ensure it’s always ready for that quick sunset sail. “For the last 30 years the number of powerboats have been increasing. Now it’s time to go back to sailing – with something eco and cool,” Schmidt told us at the announcement of the Y Breeze project in his YYachts office in Palma, Mallorca.

Designed by Cossutti, with an interior described as ‘exclusive luxury’ by Gabriel Chipperfield’s Studio Wendover, the YB75 is reminiscent of some of the iconic Wally Yachts. Indeed the high bulwarks echo that of the 43m Esense.

These bulwarks serve both aesthetic and practical purposes. Schmidt wanted the looks so clean that stanchions could be avoided. The bulwarks give the required safe height for a full walkaround deck. Further aft they help conceal the steering consoles when not in use. Then, towards the transom, we see a feature adopted by powerboats of late: the bulwarks fold out like wings to create a vast sunbathing deck.

As well as looking ultra clean, the aim of the YB75 is to offer the comfort of a comparable powerboat. So while the decks are devoid of lines and clutter, a galley unit can rise up from below the deck. And YYachts is devising its own removable sunbeds including gimballing versions for the aft deck, while removable or fixed biminis can also cover this area.

A glance at the accommodation plan will show there is no interior space in the aft third of the boat, but instead a large toy garage.

Light, inviting interior uses natural and recyled materials

75ft of instant fun

Ease of use is so important when comparing to the power market, believes Schmidt (and he knows from his experience with Fjord motor yachts) – hence crew will be included in the price! “So you can call and say ‘in one hour I want to go sailing’ and the boat will be ready.”

YYachts is even studying fenders that can automatically deploy and inflate. “We’re trying to avoid the hassle of having to prepare and de-prepare a sailboat,” Schmidt added.

The YB75 is designed to appeal to owners who have houses in the sailing playgrounds of Palma, Sardinia and St Tropez areas. Schmidt envisages multiple owners sharing a boat via an app.

Y Yachts’ Y7 review: This powerful carbon cruiser is guaranteed to excite

What is your idea of simple sailing? To a wooden yacht enthusiast it may be the pleasure of hand hoisting…

Video: Ice 70 review – a luxury, fast Med cruiser

Some yachts will always produce that instant spark of attraction. With others, the appeal may be slower burning, where facets…

He also believes this size is “the best way to show the sexy concept”. The YB75 is the largest project yet for the Italian designers and ORC specialists Cossutti. The sheerline is particularly clever: modern, bold and relatively straight it helps disguise the bulwarks and coachroof which extends so far forward.

After analysing the typical Balearics/Costa Smerelda/south France-type locations prospective owners will use, Cossutti found that 90% of the time the wind averages around 10 knots. So they chose a narrow hull with a low wetted surface.

A tonne of water ballast will offset the need for lots of weight in the keel or crew on the rail. “The idea is to have fun without needing many people on board, hence the water ballast,” Maurizio Cossutti explained.

He calculates that the YB75 will be competitive with a Maxi 72, yet can be handled on a race track by a crew of six as opposed to a team typically three times that size.

all bulwarks avoid the need for stanchions, disguise the coachroof lines… and fold out to create a particularly wide aft sun terrace

Play by day

While the interior does have cabins and berths, the expectation is that owners will not spend many nights aboard. Instead it will be used as a daysailer for fun cruising, racing and entertaining. Wendover’s Gabriel Chipperfield, whose father David designed the interior for the first YYachts Cool Breeze, has styled the YB75 with light, sustainable or natural materials, such as leather, timber, rattan and straw.

Indeed Y-Yachts has placed a strong focus on sustainability for the YBreeze. It has already incorporated electric drives in its boats, but Schmidt believes synthetic diesel would be the smart choice here in terms of carbon footprint.

YYachts is also working with a Spanish firm on using their green epoxy which can reportedly be separated and burned after use. And the yard has already spent 18 months investigating ways to avoid wasteful moulds with composite yacht manufacturing – stay tuned for more on that and this intriguing project as details are released.

YYACHTS YBREEZE 75 - THE NEW ICONIC DAYSAILER FOR SPEED AND FUN

With the all-new YBREEZE 75 daysailer, we have created - in collaboration with Cossutti Yacht Design - what promises to be a whole new type of yacht. More a coastal speed machine than an offshore cruiser, this eye-catching 75-foot carbon-fibre craft has been designed for sailors who want to enjoy relaxing afternoons with friends or the excitement of a regatta.

ICONIC DESIGN

Inspired by the AC 75 America's Cup yachts of the early 2000s, the YBREEZE 75 is the first yacht in the world to feature opening hull wings for a larger aft platform. With the low coachroof almost invisible, the YBREEZE 75 boasts a very dynamic look, pointing towards its performance intentions. The sides stand out for their clean lines, with no pulpits or stanchions. As on a much larger yacht, guests can stroll comfortably around the entire deck area.

DESIGNED COMFORT

Spacious and airy below deck, the Y75 BREEZE offers the interior space of a traditional 70-foot luxury yacht with 3 cabins, 3 showers and 3 toilets, a beautifully designed galley and an impressive saloon. The cabin atmosphere is luxurious and light, resembling a high-end penthouse. On deck, your guests can swim from the aft platform, before enjoying a cool drink and grilled fish on the stainless steel grill that rises impressively out of the cockpit.

Designed and built for fun, as well as performance, the YBREEZE 75 allows guests to enjoy water sports equipment such as jet skis, surfboards and waterslides, all conveniently stored in the yacht's spacious garage. As an option, owners with smaller children or grandchildren can opt for a games room at the rear of the yacht.

SPORTING PERFORMANCE

If you're in the mood, the YBREEZE 75's competitive racing handicap rating, lightweight carbon fibre hull, powerful sail plan and dynamic water ballast make it possible to race competitively with a small crew of 6 or 7. The high aspect ratio torpedo keel and twin rudders make the Y75 BREEZE faster than a conventional 80-foot yacht. A displacement of 25.8 tonnes and 190 square metres of sail area means she sails effortlessly in the lightest Mediterranean breeze.

THE SIMPLICITY OF SAILING

Sailing the Y75 BREEZE is simple in the large cockpit, with all halyards, sheets and ropes concealed and leading aft. The high bulwark eliminates the need for stanchions and provides safe, dry sailing for guests in rough conditions. Electric push-buttons control the jib, self-tacking jib, mainsail and automatic furler for the code0 and gennaker. There is also an electric furling mainsail in the boom, while the hatches and companionway can be controlled remotely by smartphone.

OCEAN-FRIENDLY

To minimise the Y75 BREEZE's carbon footprint, we have invested in redesigning our yard in Greifswald, Germany, making all processes as sustainable as possible. For example, inside the boat, only veneers from exclusive furniture manufacturers are used and interior bulkheads are made from sustainable epoxy composites. To further reduce emissions, owners can choose between a zero-emission electric saildrive or a 100hp diesel saildrive running on synthetic fuel.

YYachts presents the new YBreeze 75 daysailer

YYachts presents the YBreeze 75 daysailer, a  solution to challenges faced by the sailboat industry. This innovative vessel combines the elegance of sailboats with the convenience of powerboats. Key features include a sporty performance, luxurious interior, advanced technology, and sharing possibilities. Customizable options ensure a unique sailing experience. Enjoy the future of sailing with the Y Breeze 75 from YYachts.

YYachts carefully selected the name “Breeze” for this sailing yacht to emphasize that it goes beyond being just a new model. Instead, it represents a new concept that revolutionizes how people experience and connect with the sea.

The naval architecture and the exterior design are made in collaboration with Cossutti Yacht Design. The exterior impresses with clean lines and gives the YB75 a sporty character.

Developed in collaboration with the Wendover Studio, the interior style is designed to guarantee an inviting, practical and elegant atmosphere. Materials are appropriately used, carefully detailed and coordinated to represent today’s luxury style people expect to feel at home. Of course, the style can be customized following clients’ preferences.

The stern platform of the YBreeze 75 folds out, making access to the water much easier than on other yachts. To enjoy the cockpit, the YB75 offers a galley coming up from the deck. It’s equipped with a sink, two fridges (one for drink/one for food) and a barbecue grill. The entire deck is designed as a safe walkaround, with no steps in between. In order to be able to head for shallower anchorages, the telescopic keel can reduce the draught to 2.50 metres.

Fenders are deployed via a special system and stowed on board to save space. On the lower deck, there will be a flexible layout with a saloon and different configurations for the guest cabin (daybed, two single beds or one double). A playroom for kids can also be installed. To enjoy the Mediterranean summer, the YBreeze 75 offers different options of sunbeds: stand-alone sunbeds or a box with inbuilt gimbaled sunbeds.

A good handicap makes the YBreeze 75 interesting for racing with a small crew (max 6) Water Ballast ensures good stability (big sail plan for performances) also with a small crew. The naval architect considered the major wind configuration in the most popular Mediterranean areas, The rating, in comparison with other boats looks very favourable.

The shipyard’s carbon footprint is continuously being reduced. We review all processes in order to produce as climate-neutrally as possible. For the YBreeze 75, we only use wood and panels that interior outfitters of larger mega yachts provide as surplus. For the construction of the yacht, we will use sustainable epoxy and numerous eco-friendly products and materials. The YB75 can be delivered with a diesel engine (120 hp) running on synthetic fuel or with an electric engine.
