ONE BOAT
ONE PURPOSE
We are excited to introduce a brand new 25-foot sport boat specifically designed without compromising on performance and pure joy. We aim to offer a fresh and modern alternative that will captivate those who love the physical and technical demands of high-performance one-design sailing.
Our new design keeps the key performance elements but with a sleek, updated hull profile, a cutting-edge sail plan, and new features. This will ensure an exhilarating experience with improved handling, speed, and modern aesthetics, giving sailors the best of both worlds—familiarity with a lot of innovation.
Did we mention that it's all carbon!
KEY SAILING POINTS
Full hull and foil construction in carbon.
Carbon mast, boom, and pole.
Removable “Under boat rudder” for optimal control and less drag.
Fathead main and running back stay for optimal power and trimming.
Gennaker retrieving system for effective and fast take-down.
New and improved jib sheet system – all in one.
Bobstay and tackline in one.
Lifting keel for easy stowing and trailer transport.
Storage room in the cockpit for the engine and spares.
Vakaros Atlas2 for effective race management and a dedicated dashboard for seeing and sharing performance data.
HULL AND FOILS
The KISS25 features a modern, easily driven hull that remains stiff when sailing upwind and offers a stable, supportive surface when sailing downwind.
The rudder is mounted beneath the hull, ensuring precise handling and significantly enhanced grip in the water, especially when carving through heavy winds.
The hull is constructed entirely from carbon fiber composite. It is exceptionally lightweight and maintains its shape and stiffness throughout the boat's lifespan.
PERFECT PARTNERS
The KISS Yachting design required an expert boatbuilder and composite specialist, while Neo Yachts & Composites sought to expand their product line with a smaller boat. It’s a perfect match between Danish design and maritime heritage, and Italian craftsmanship and expertise.
Neo Yachts & Composites is renowned for precision in modern composite boatbuilding and possesses extensive experience producing high-performance racing yachts. As the production partner, Neo Yachts adds invaluable expertise to the KISS25 project, ensuring optimal conditions for development and rigorous quality assurance. Their production methods emphasize lightweight construction, structural integrity, and meticulous attention to detail - all critical attributes for contemporary racing yachts.
Pauger Carbon Composites provides the mast and rigging, while Harken supplies all deck hardware. Vakaros delivers the integrated tracking and analytics system onboard the yacht.
SAIL PLAN
The sail plan configuration is optimized for all conditions with a fathead mainsail and a 105% jib with an aggressive tack angle.
The gennaker is designed for high-speed reaching with a flat profile.
The inventory also includes a Code Zero that expands track layout options to include coastal or inshore racing.
