Sparkman & Stephens designed performance cruiser from Baltic Yachts in Finland. Hull No.5 of 5 in the semi-custom series. Refitted in 2023 with new paint, sails, batteries and so on.
FURTHER BROKER’S COMMENTS:
PIXELION was originally built by the Baltic shipyard as the last of five Baltic 64’s for an Italian entrepreneur (pharmaceutical industry). He set the interior design for his own use and plans – to use her mainly for Corporate events (hence the reason for the 2 master cabins). The yacht was originally named “LADY G” and was operated across Italy under the Italian Flag.
A few years later the first owner sold “LADY G”, to order a larger new yacht from Baltic. The new owner was an Italian / American who changed the yacht’s name to “VAHANLEX”. Sold back to Europe in 2009, she was renamed ‘PIXELION’ and benefitted from a comprehensive refit in 2010/2011. Sold again in 2018, PIXELION cruised to the Caribbean where she was recently purchased by her current owner to add to his constantly changing fleet which currently also includes a classic Swan 65.
2023 refit highlights include: • New Awlgrip topsides paint. • New Awlgrip deck/superstructure paint. • Refurbished teak decks • New mainsail and genoa • New Gel service batteries • New start batteries • New bimini • New sprayhood • Systems checks
*** Please note – Updated photos to follow once refit and painting is completed ***
BUILDER’S COMMENTS:
Sparkman & Stephens were naval Architects on a Custom 83 footer that we had delivered in 1987.
When we started to plan a 64 feet serial model we chose Sparkman & Stephens as designer because they possessed both experience and proven ability in designing big sailing yachts.
Our goal was to create a high quality and a high performance yacht that could be used successfully for racing as well as fast, comfortable cruising. Baltic 64 had a moderate IOR hull shape, since she could then also be raced very successfully in the IMS division.
