The good folks behind VÉHICULE, are always up to something. And after having presented a string of short-films, collabs and capsule collections, the luxury brand has presented its most avantgarde collaboration yet, with a price tag to match it. Listed at €1.000.000, the avantgarde brand has teamed up with Leonardo Yachts on the beautiful Eagle 46. It arrives with Foam-core Carbon Fibre laminate hull and deck, Hull spray painted in AWL Grip (color of choice), Carbon mast and boom, Rodkick vang, rod rigging, and North Sails VÉHICULE Cruising Gennaker.
The Eagle 46 is designed in close cooperation with Hoek Design. Designed with single handed sailing as one of the key features and a large cockpit to bring along friends or family for enjoying. This makes the Eagle 46 perfect for longer journeys and overnight stays while her easy to handle systems will still allow for easy shorthanded day sailing.
The Eagle 46 combines timeless classic lines with a modern below the waterline hull design, modern keel and rudder appendages and the latest available deck hardware. All sailing controls are placed within easy reach of the helmsman. This allows for the new Eagle 46 to be sailed easily single-handed. After all, we believe that sailing an Eagle should be uncomplicated fun.
The pristine deck boasts seamless flush hatches and is adorned with EcoDeck® decking, a sustainable material crafted from renewable, solvent-free resins. At the end of its lifecycle, EcoDeck® can be effortlessly recycled.
