OWNER’S COMMENTS:
After racing for 30 years in the Laser and Flying Dutchman, I was looking for a boat that gives me the same feeling and adding a huge comfort, pleasurable sailing double handed with my wife and my daughters. On the other hand I wanted a boat for fast racing with my friends on the week-ends in the wintertime. Every time I look at the boat on the pier I get in love again in these lines!
MANUFACTURER’S COMMENTS:
The ICE YACHTS boat-yard presents in the market the new ICE 52, a fast cruise dedicates to passionate and competent owners that seek enjoyment and strong emotions at the helm. Built with highly innovative materials and advanced construction techniques the ICE 52 is in a league of it’s own in all that regards performance, comfort on board and ability to take on even the toughest conditions at sea. Excellent for demanding cruises and regattas.
The design is inspired by the boats smaller sibling, the ICE 33 a killer regatta boat, from which it takes the “scimitar-like” design of the bow and “smiling” carving shape of the stern. The project has been realized by Felci Yacht Design and the production is done in the historic site of Yacht 2000, construction yard that has had over thirty years of experience and has completed more than 80 prestigious maxi-yachts.
The hydrodynamics are nothing less than impressive. The water lines allow the ICE 52 to glide at very high speeds due to its max beam of 4.65m and the carefully studied appendages also grant the yacht great upwind capabilities: the ICE 52 shows no problem in taking on wind coming from extremely narrow angles.
To guarantee this level of performance are the advanced technologies used in the construction process and the elevated skill of the artisans which have great experience and expertise in their field.
DESIGNER’S COMMENTS:
The ICE52 was born as a "synthesis" of the very current ICE33s, whose innovative incredibly performing hull developed in years of racing and research by Felci Yacht, has demonstrated exceptional performance in all conditions and of the ICE62 Fast Cruisers, where the basic concept, that is that of fast, safe and comfortable cruising develops with a modern and elegant style that gives these yachts an undisputed prestige.
To succeed in this ambitious goal, we started from the modeling of an extremely avant-garde hull with hydrodynamic solutions generally adopted for racing boats, without compromise, transferred to this fast cruiser project.
Thus a high-performance and exploitable boat was built outside, with simple, extremely functional equipment, as far as possible with the bridge free from maneuvers and at the same time comfortable and highly habitable inside, where traditional carpentry and composite materials are well mixed to obtain a light, yet comfortable boat. The choice of appendices that use particularly optimized profiles is important for performance; thanks to the considerable percentage of weight in the keel, a high straightening moment is obtained, synonymous with stability, performance and safety. The sail plan follows exactly the same philosophy, that is, that of being derived from racing, but with all the simplifications that make it suitable for a cruise crew.
CONSTRUCTION
RCD Status:
- Our understanding is that this yacht complies with the RCD and is categorised A – unlimited offshore.
Hull, Deck & Superstructure Construction:
- Hull is laminated with infusion technique, in sandwich of composite materials using hybrid glass-carbon fibres with epoxy resin and PVC foam core with different density and thickness.
- Deck is laminated with infusion technique, in sandwich of composite materials using carbon fibres with epoxy resin and PVC foam core with different density and thickness.
- The use of the hybrid lamination process glass-carbon fibre was chosen because it allows to obtain an optimal comfort while sailing with minimum weight and maximum mechanical properties of the laminate.
- The localized reinforcements are made with unidirectional and biaxial carbon fibres.
- The structures either longitudinal or transverse (bulkheads and floors) are entirely vacuum laminated in epoxy sandwich using glass-carbon fibres and PVC foam cores at various densities.
- Bulkheads are flanged for better join to the deck.
- Many composite elements are post cured with heat treatment.
- Many elements of furniture are made with foam sandwich light woods.
- Bulkheads fore and aft are completely watertight and equipped with grommets.
