They are created with “round the world cruising” in mind, strong and seaworthy, easy to handle. "Full Speed Ahead" is hence the motto of the international team at the FARMONT shipyard in Antalya, Turkey, with its 22,000 square metre site, pier, and direct access to the water. These out-and-out professionals go about their work with enthusiasm, and a commitment to the special quality of FARMONT yachts. Building classics that people will be just as enthusiastic about in 20 years time as they are today. The new FARMONT shipyard has yachts up to 38 meters / 124’67’’ ft under construction. The first FARMONT yacht - the FARMONT 70 - was handed over to her happy Owner in May, and will be presented at the Monaco Yacht Show in September 2004.

Individualism and Class Right Down the Line The innovative FARMONT explorers with hulls made of epoxy fibreglass are light and durable – ideal for adventurous seafarers. It makes yachts lighter, more durable, stronger and safer. Epoxy fibreglass also means a shallower draught and trouble-free lifting of the yacht for work in the dry dock. Another benefit is the easy cleaning of the attractive surface. Equipped for all the oceans of the world, including Arctic waters, they outwardly display a clarity of line, with interiors of visible class. This is where beauty, functionalism and seaworthiness are combined in a yacht strategy that sets new standards. Extras and the satisfaction of personal requests are of course possible. For instance, FARMONT yachts can be supplied to ice class standards, MCA or any other desired classification. The interior of the illustrated FARMONT yacht embodies many years of experience of metrica interior's professionals. FARMONT yachts are distinguished by their inviting atmosphere, plenty of space and comfort. All these are important essentials for long ocean voyages during which the deck saloon, main deck and cabins can become home to the owner and his guests for months at a stretch. The semi-custom principle offers the owner many custom solutions based o­n tried-and-tested designs from renowned naval architects. The hull design and equipment, for instance, are adopted from successful FARMONT yacht types. Personal requests, not o­nly concerning layout and interior finish, are incorporated as long as they comply with classifications. This strategy assures the owner of all the quality features and advantages of a FARMONT yacht, a stylish ambience to suit his personal taste, and savings of expense in the planning, design and building of his yacht.
