The NACIRA 67 is a unique concept directly inspired from the latest evolutions in naval architecture and luxury design from the ocean-racing scene.
To make this happen highly experienced personalities such as Michel Desjoyeaux (twice Vendée Globe winner), young and talented French designers Axel de Beaufort and Michel Kermarec (one of the best aero-hydro dynamists worldwide) have worked hand in hand since 2010 to end up with this amazing sloop.
NACIRA 67, looking at the ratio, is the most powerful leisure yacht worldwide able to reach speeds in excess of 30 knots with a sea view from the dinner table on the cruising version… a new sailing life style!

Japanese Zero
Deboyne Island, louisiade Archipalego, Papua New Guinea 10º43’69″S 152º23’70″E
On May 8, 1942 one A6M2 Zero piloted by PO2c Okura Shigeru from the 14th Shotai from the Japanese aircraft carrier Zuikaku ditched at Deboyne islands. Japanese A6M2 Zero, the main fighter plane of the Imperial Japanese Navy,this Japanese fighter plane, once a master of the air in the South Pacific arena, now lies on the sandy bottom. This is an example of the very last zero model ever manufactured. Virtually intact, divers can sit in the cockpit and pilot themselves back into the past… I did it!
