The prototype, named ROCKET ONE, was very famous in Italy because she won many regattas.
It has excellent performance due to its full carbon rig, sail plan design, and daggerboard and bulb structure. For regattas, it has excellent windward performance and outstanding downwind capabilities.
For cruising passengers, both for Mediterranean and ocean crossings, note that in 2014 it made its only ocean route, from the Canary Islands to Saint Lucia, finishing in 5th position. For this, it was equipped with a water purification system and the boat’s structure was totally reinforced with new carbon beams and additional keel support reinforcement, designed by a UK engineering marine specialist (we have detailed plans of all the work they carried out).
The structural reinforcements, numerous technical characteristics, and habitability (with 3 double cabins, 2 bathrooms, and all available space in the bow and on both sides of the stern) make it an ideal boat not only for coastal or Mediterranean navigation but also for traveling worldwide.

SAILS
In 2018, a set of sails was designed, used only during 2018 and 2019 (in 2021 and 2022 in just 4-5 regattas). Designed by Juan Garay, Copa América designer, and cut by Alfredo Roberi, Copa América sailmaker and current TP52 sailboat in the Alpha+ team, with past campaigns for Bronenosec, Trifork, or RC44.
It consists of:
- 2 x Northsails 3Di Jib (55.66 m2), manufactured by Alfredo Roberi. One for light winds (up to 16 knots) and another for stronger winds (16-20+ knots).
- 1 Northsails 3Di mainsail (68.77 m2), manufactured by Alfredo Roberi.
- 2 x Gennaker (210 m2), designed by Juan Garay and manufactured by Alfredo Roberi. Includes A1.5 and A2. It can accommodate tighter designs for "windward-leeward" regattas, facilitating better ratings, but it’s a joy to sail with gennakers of that size.
- An A1.5 and an A2 of 210 m2.
