Berret
and Phillipe Stark


Who are they?



Google them for details. Berret is a leading yacht designer. Most
people have heard of him...at least most sailors. Starck is ultra
famous and I knew his work long before I knew he had any association
with sailboat design.
The 35s5 is handsigned by Starck/Berret and the boat was also featured
everywhere from the NY Times to the Museum of Modern Art quarterly. In
spite of it's high price at the time they still managed to sell more
than 200 of them here in under 5 years. They are quite unlike most
other Beneteau boats having a far higher build quality than the Oceanus
series or the newer First series. My boat is even nicer having the
custom teak interior and better fabrics...it was an expensive option
just like the R&P steering option.
