Mari Cha IV sold

The transatlantic record holder is to compete in the Superyacht Cup in Palma next month

Robert Miller's 140ft (42m) ocean record setting schooner Mari Cha IV has been sold and renamed Senso One. The monohull transatlantic record holder is to take part in The Superyacht Cup Ulysse Nardin in Palma next month and will be the fastest boat ever to take part in a Superyacht Cup event.

Senso One has two 45m tall masts but weighs only 50 tonnes due to a lightweight, sleek carbon-fibre hull which contains a stripped-out and minimalist interior. This is a complete contrast to some of the luxurious staterooms onboard several of the other participating yachts.

“We are delighted to have Senso One participate at The Superyacht Cup” commented Event Director Patrick Whetter. “The response to our new IRC class has been very positive this year and we expect the fleet to grow significantly for the future.”

Senso One will compete in the new IRC class for The Superyacht Cup against such yachts as the classic J class Ranger, and the Wally Open Season.

The Superyacht Cup Ulysse Nardin will take place in Dique del Oeste in Palma, Mallorca from 11-14 June.
