British modern classic yacht design and build company Spirit Yachts will be unveiling its latest designs at this year's boot Düsseldorf from 20th - 28th January.

Based on stand B41 in Hall 16, Spirit Yachts is inviting visitors to its 'new look' stand, which will showcase the company's portfolio of Cruise, Race, and Power yachts.

Spirit Yachts' Managing Director Karen Underwood commented, "This year, we are taking a different approach to boot Düsseldorf, and we are excited to share our interactive stand that celebrates our distinct design and build process. Visitors will be able to engage with wooden components handcrafted by our team and learn about our commitment to creative design, sustainable timber, and world-class craftsmanship."

Show visitors are also welcome to peruse new designs for a Spirit C57 cruising yacht.

Spirit Yachts' Production and Design Director Julian Weatherill added, "The new Spirit C57 design has had input from expertise across the business and we are excited to reveal the concept to the public. We have seen rising demand for a cruising yacht that marries timeless style and quality sailing performance with a luxury onboard experience. The Spirit C57 is the start of a new generation of Spirits for the modern market."

As part of its move to refresh the brand, Spirit Yachts recently launched a new website to showcase its portfolio of Cruise, Race, and Power yachts. Clients can select a pre-existing Spirit design or commission a completely custom project.

Marketing Director Helen Porter said, "Our goal is to make custom wooden yachts more accessible to clients with busy lives who are looking for beauty as well as practicality. Investment into online activity, new designs, and opportunities to develop those all-important in person relationships are integral to building on Spirit's 30-year success story."

Based in Ipswich, Suffolk on the east coast of the UK, Spirit Yachts was founded in 1993 and now has 80 yachts worldwide. This year, Spirit will launch an electric Spirit 52 sailing yacht and its third Spirit 72 in the last three years.
