View of a sailing yacht Miss Marie with its sail up and open cockpit with seating area, cushions, and sunshade under a clear blue sky.

Built to sail well, and live well

Miss Marie belongs to the iconic First 53 family and is fitted with nearly every performance option available — deep-draft performance keel, carbon mast, full carbon sails and a full teak deck. Below deck she is just as carefully considered: custom upholstery throughout and a galley outfitted for the discerning traveler, so the comfort matches the sailing. She was built, rigged and outfitted for those who value performance as much as the comfort of enjoying it.
