Imagine gliding across the emerald waters of our Gulf Coast, the sun casting golden reflections off the waves, and a gentle breeze propelling you forward. The Eagle 44, a 44-foot daysailing sailboat from Leonardo Yachts, offers this and so much more, transforming your coastal lifestyle into a luxurious, exhilarating adventure.
Classic Elegance, Modern Innovation
Designed in close cooperation with Dykstra Naval Architects and inspired by the iconic racing Js of the 1930s, the Eagle 44 is a modern classic. This stunning daysailer combines the timeless appeal of traditional yacht design with state-of-the-art materials and technology. The use of a modern keel shape and lightweight vacuum-injected epoxy laminate ensures that the Eagle 44 is both powerful and perfectly balanced.
Effortless Control and Comfort
Navigating the Eagle 44 is a delight, thanks to its mahogany and stainless-steel steering wheel, which offers excellent control and maneuverability. The winches are conveniently positioned within easy reach of the helmsman, making single-handed sailing a breeze. The spacious cockpit, with its long benches and comfortable cushions, is perfect for hosting up to eight guests, whether they are seasoned sailors or complete novices. Sunbathing, dining, or simply soaking in the stunning coastal views has never been more enjoyable.
Exhilarating Performance
The Eagle 44 delivers exhilarating performance without compromising on comfort. Its powerful rig, combined with a modern keel and rudder configuration, makes sailing a joyous experience. The white Selden mast, equipped with an in-mast car system, allows for easy hoisting of the mainsail, while the furling jib can be controlled directly from the helm. This ease of operation ensures that you can focus on the thrill of sailing, rather than the complexities of yacht management.
The Emerald Coast, with its turquoise waters and scenic beauty, is the perfect backdrop for the Eagle 44. The yacht’s enormous cockpit features a large mahogany table with a sink and bar-box, so you can enjoy cold drinks and snacks while sailing. Four large cockpit lockers provide ample storage space for all your essentials. For intimate escapes, the cabin boasts a large double V-shaped bed and a discreetly built-in toilet, ensuring comfort and privacy.
A Customizable Masterpiece
The Eagle 44 is a true daysailer that makes no compromises on looks or functionality. Its white woodwork interior, finished with mahogany trims and an Alcantara ceiling, exudes classic luxury. The flush-mounted deck hatch ensures that natural light floods the interior without disturbing the sleek deck lines. Standard features include North Sails sails and high-end deck equipment, making the Eagle 44 ready to sail upon delivery.
Customization options abound, allowing you to personalize your Eagle 44 to your tastes. Choose your preferred hull color, Permateek deck and caulking hues, and interior and exterior cushion fabrics. Performance upgrades, such as North Sails 3Di sails, a carbon mast, or a deep keel, are also available to enhance your sailing experience.
