Formerly Morning Glory and Capricorno, the Reichel Pugh 79′ N.ice is an icon of high-performance offshore sailing.
Born as a sophisticated racing yacht, over time it has evolved into a perfect blend of performance, elegance, and comfort. This Reichel Pugh design has won some of the most prestigious international competitions, including the Sydney-Hobart Race and the Cape Town-Rio Race, establishing itself as one of the best-performing yachts in its class.
In 2004, an Italian owner recognised her potential and transformed the yacht into a true cruiser-racer, with a redesigned deck to combine racing power and cruising comfort. Significant refits in 2005, 2020 and 2022 have further enhanced her distinctive character.
During the 2020 refit, the interiors were entirely redesigned by Nauta Yachts, which created bright and contemporary spaces capable of accommodating up to six guests in three elegant cabins, as well as the crew quarters. In 2022, thanks to a further upgrade by ICE Yachts, N.ICE regained a competitive edge, returning to winning ways in the latest Maxi and Mini Maxi class regattas.
Today, N.ICE embodies the perfect blend of sporting passion and adventurous spirit. This high-performance, luxurious yacht is ideal for those seeking the thrill of competition as well as for those looking for a comfortable setting for offshore cruises or ocean crossings, such as the ARC.
