A Haime & Butler Case Study
Commissioned by a private client, we were asked to design an identity, the main gennaker and spinnaker sails and a range of crew clothing for this 100ft racing yacht. Gaia, with a displacement of 42 tonnes, has been built to be raced in competition in both the Med and the Caribbean.Our client’s seven year old son, Jack, produced the original drawings and we then undertook the task of re-drawing every detail as vector graphics so they could be scaled up to the required size - the total sail area of the yacht is 4,566 sq ft (427 sq m).
