OCEAN PURE 2 is a forty one metre sailing yacht built by Concorde to a Farr Yacht Design hull, a genuine performance sloop that was given a comprehensive refit in 2019. She looks after eleven guests across five cabins with a crew of six, and she offers something unusual in the charter fleet: the pedigree and the manners of a serious sailing yacht paired with the volume and the finish of a modern superyacht.
Her point of difference is that Farr pedigree. Farr Yacht Design is one of the great names in fast sailing hulls, and it shows in the way she carries her rig and moves under sail, a yacht that genuinely sails rather than motors with a mast. The 2019 refit went deep, with the engine and generators overhauled and the mast, rigging and sails inspected and upgraded, so she is as sound as she is quick, ready for real passages as well as quiet days at anchor.
On deck she is laid out for life in the open. A covered cockpit aft carries a dining table for long lunches in the shade, while a separate seating area makes an easy gathering point at anchor, and sun pads forward give a private spot to stretch out under the rig. The swim platform opens straight onto the water with the toys close at hand, so swimming, paddleboarding and a turn on the water fill the warm afternoons between sails.
Inside is where she surprises. Where many sailing yachts feel tight below, OCEAN PURE 2 carries three salons and two dining areas, a rare amount of interior space for a yacht of her type. The joinery is dark walnut set against pale stone and soft neutrals, a sharp and contemporary mood rather than the pale varnish of a classic. The main saloon is a generous lounge with the sea through large windows, a separate dining area seats the full party, and a lower lounge with a library and a wet bar gives a calm retreat away from the main living space.
Accommodation is arranged over five cabins for eleven guests, all with ensuite bathrooms. The master stateroom is a full width room in the same dark walnut, with a VIP suite, a twin and further guest cabins completing the layout, each private and well finished with good daylight below. It is an unusually flexible plan for a sailing yacht, able to look after a large family or two families sharing with real comfort.
Under way she is a sailing yacht first, built to make the most of a breeze, with an auxiliary cruise around ten knots for the calms and the passages between islands. Her natural ground is Turkey, Greece and the wider East Mediterranean, the pine clad bays of the Lycian coast and the clear water of the Aegean, cruising grounds that reward a yacht able to reach the quiet anchorages under sail.
OCEAN PURE 2 suits a group that wants the real thing, a proper sailing yacht with the space, the service and the comfort to charter in style. Fast, beautifully refitted and genuinely rare in her blend of performance and volume, she is a distinctive way to sail the Turkish and Greek coasts.
