Windy Boats Dubois SR 52 Blackbird (2011-)

Brief Summary

Occasionally a custom boat comes along that is so unusual – and so practical for its purpose in life -- that it might become a new class of boat. That’s the way we feel about this 52-footer built by Windy as a one-off tender and play boat for the owner of a 220’ megayacht. But this 52’ Windy is so capable we wonder if an owner really needs anything else. The fact is this sleek Norwegian beauty is all one really needs on the Riviera simply because she has everything needed for a terrific day on the water -- without the expense of a megayacht boatel. We can foresee the day, perhaps not too far away, when the megayacht owner decides to economize by simply renting a suite or two at the Eden Roc or Hotel du Cap and using this sweet little boat for the real fun...sort of a Love Me Tender.
