About Hera 세일링 요트

헤라(Hera)는 1930년대에 건조된 J-클래스 경주용 범선에서 영감을 받은 콘셉트 세일링 요트이다. 이 디자인은 서로 교차하는 두 개의 볼륨으로 정의된다. 데크 볼륨은 선수에서 조타 위치를 향해 선체 위로 흐르듯 이어지며, 그 지점에서 데크가 선체를 감싸 안으며 일체형 러더를 형성한다. 선체는 자동차 디자인에서 영감을 받은 정제된 면 처리를 갖추었으며, 측면을 따라 하이라이트 라인이 흐른다. 두 볼륨이 교차하며 채광창 개구부가 만들어지고, 조타륜을 지지하는 구조가 자리한다. 헤라의 전장은 48미터이며, 경량 카본 복합재로 건조된다.

Unique Properties: The innovative deck is the biggest visual innovation: its volume celebrates wind and speed as it flows over the hull, from the bow to the steer. The narrow tip merges seamlessy into the bow of the yacht and it grows wider towards the steer, where it wraps around the hull creating its unique integrated rudders.
The hull design has very contolled surfacing inspired by automotive design, where meticulously controlled highlights run along its sides.
The intersection of these two volumes seamlessly creates the opening for the day-light and they integrate the support for the steering wheels.
Dimensions & Packaging: Length overall: 48 m
Maximum beam: 8,5 m
Draught: 7 m
Sail area: 920 m2
Tags: Yacht, Sailing, Design, Boat, Race, mast, technology, America's cup,
Production Technology: Using new generation of hull design and lightweight, carbon composite construction, Hera is expected to surf exceeding 25 knots of speed downwind,
The latest carbon construction technology provides for a reduced displacement and an increased rigidity.
Research: This project was inspired by the J-class yachts designed in the 1920s and 30s to compete for the America’s cup. Although this concept does not follow the Nathanael Herreshoff’s Universal Rule of those single masted ships, Hera still wants to represent the same feeling and emotional expression of those vessels. The most advanced technologies, materials and production methods have been taken into consideration for this yacht, to best integrate future and tradition. The general design language is inspired by the automotive world, caractherized by tense and fast lines stretching across the whole length of the hull, to define the speed of the geometry in a minimal and yet sophisticated way.
Hera is a concept sailboat where the top racing performance are married to spacious living space on deck and inside, aiming to offer the racing experience at the highest level of competition and the cruising enjoyment in the maximum comfort.
Inspiration: Hera is a concept sailing yacht inspired by J-Class vessels, the single-masted racing sailboats built in the 1930s to compete in the America’s Cup. This concept is a futuristic interpretation that celebrates these peak racers through innovative materials and innovative shapes.
Project Duration: The project is a personal visual concept privately realized between February and May 2019 in Shanghai and Munich by Nicola Mondini.
Operation Flow: The advanced sail handling system delivers easy control for reduced racing crew.
