Studio Delta is the naval architect in this project for Glacier yachts designed by Guido de Groot. The 48 ft aluminum yacht, available as an open or cabin version.

Glacier Yachts: “Glacier 48 Cabin is the flagship, a limited edition model, in the line of motor yachts represented by ADV Yachts. The sleek sporty design makes the yacht unique in its kind. Although the concept is focused on comfort, it has excellent sailing characteristics.”

Owner: “I had to sail 350 nm from lee shore towards my destination. I had a headwind up to 30 kn and waves up to 4 m. I have to say it was amazing, I had no strong hits, the boat just dived very softly and stable. The construction, furniture, and insulation all were perfect. 20 nm before reaching my destination, the waves got smaller till one meter. I pushed speed till 24 knots and the result was unusual, no hits or noncomfort, I could drink coffee there”.
