SY MELITI - 26.32m

Garcia Shipyard completed SY MELITI in 2021 around a defining architectural principle: the integration of her aluminum hull construction with expansive deck arrangements that maximize her 26.32-meter length through deliberate spatial flow. Where many sailing yachts compartmentalize their exterior areas, MELITI's deck plan creates uninterrupted sight lines from bow to stern, allowing natural light to penetrate deep into her interior volumes while maintaining the structural integrity demanded by serious ocean passages. This approach transforms how guests move through the yacht. Her cockpit opens directly into the main saloon without traditional barriers, while her forward deck areas connect through wide walkways that feel more like terraces than typical yacht passages. The result is a vessel that breathes with the rhythm of ocean life rather than fighting against it. Below deck, her accommodation spaces reflect the same commitment to openness without sacrificing privacy. Natural materials work alongside her aluminum construction to create interiors that feel grounded yet refined, while her port lights and deck hatches channel daylight into every corner of her living areas. MELITI represents Garcia Shipyard's understanding that modern sailing demands yachts capable of both serious passage-making and relaxed coastal cruising. Her proportions suggest speed and seaworthiness, while her layout acknowledges that today's sailors expect comfort that enhances rather than competes with the sailing experience itself.
