A SCANDINAVIAN CUTTER

This 11-meters long Swedish cutter will welcome you in her mahogany salon for a relaxing moment among friends or family, or a romantic stroll. A true jewel with sophisticated lines, she will ravish both boat enthusiasts and design lovers. Since we fitted it with a fully electric propulsion during her refit, you will enjoy a refined comfort allied to the delicate silence of a decarbonated vehicle.

Elegance from the north

Fårö was built in Sweden in the early 1930s, designed by the famous naval architect Carl Gustaf Pettersson. Following her purchase in 2018 in the Netherland, our project to fit it with an electric propulsion required a very fine integration of this technology, and we obtained the support of a conversion program. After ten months of work in a boatyard in Brittany, the cutter finally joined Seine Avenue’s fleet for the opening of Quai de la Photo.

To offer you the wonderful spectacle of the Seine in an unrivaled peacefulness, nautical heritage and its timeless charms meet technical innovation. Quietly sailing on the most fluid avenue of Paris, you will be able to make the delicate experience of the river landscape aboard Fårö: lights, perspectives, respirations and sounds will come to you for a pure moment of discovery and awe.

a cruise like an INVITATION to the VOYAGE

Access takes place through the central deck, where the cockpit is located. While it is absolutely possible to stay and chat with the crew about the history of Paris or learn anecdotes about the Seine, the salon is in the back, offering two benches to the passengers. Partly sheltered under the mahogany roof, this space allows a comfortable appreciation of the beauty of both the boat and the surrounding landscape. For a trip in more changeable seasons, a convertible soft-top allows to cruise fully sheltered while still enjoying the view.
