Wauquiez 55 tour at boot Düsseldorf 2025

One of the yachts I had to see at boot Düsseldorf 2025 was the Wauquiez 55. This performance cruising yacht, with Naval Architecture by the Marc Lombard Yacht Design Group, has clearly been influenced by the IMOCA designs being used in the Vendée Globe.

The central pilothouse frees up space at the stern, the lines and curved decks all point to a racing heritage.

I took a look around during the show to see what the yacht had to offer.
