Altair: The Legendary 1931 William Fife & Sons Schooner (2009)

Discover the Altair, a near-mythical classic sailing yacht built by William Fife & Sons in 1931. With an overall length of 131 feet (39.5m), this gaff-rigged topsail schooner offers an authentic and luxurious charter experience in Split, Croatia.

Unlike modern vessels, the Altair boasts a mythical status in the classic yacht world, named after one of the brightest stars. Recently refitted in 2008, she combines historical integrity with modern comfort, accommodating up to 7 guests in 5 staterooms with 8 crew members ensuring your every need is met.

Gulet Altair is a very nice  6 cabin gullet, a very special specimen since it is the only gullet that was completely built in Croatia and for Croatian cruising specially.
It has many of the typical gullet trademarks but it is also a unique combination of Croatian design.
