INTRODUCTION
CAPRICHO II (ex Spiip) was purchased by her current owners late in 2015.
Their brief had been to buy a comfortable blue water cruising yacht they could sail as a family unit.
With her easy to manage rig set up and systems the vessel was ideal, and also provided an elegant modern interior with flexible five cabin layout.
They immediately had the yacht upgraded with new instruments and some other items ready for the Mediterranean 2016 season. After enjoying their first season they then placed the yacht through a more substantial refit in La Spezia, Italy – this work included: full rig / mast service, full service of the lifting keel, new Flexiteek decking, new upholstery and other new equipment.
Following another Med season, they undertook further works in the winter 2017-18 in the south of France including new engine and gen set, also new sails (preparing the yacht for an Atlantic crossing and more extended cruising).
The owner and his family have enjoyed the winter season in the Caribbean, and Bahamas.
Further upgrades and servicing were undertaken in Grenada. In March the owners sailed to Bermuda. The owners have enjoyed owning Capricho II and have now sailed back to the Med where they will enjoy her this summer, they wish to sell the boat to buy something different to continue their future sailing travels.
COMMENTS ON DESIGN
The bulkheads were custom styled -: Out of four panels, one is made of oak wood, two are white and the hull side (inner planking) is coloured.
The partition bulkheads lengthways are made of clear oak wood like the floorboards.
The partition bulkheads widthways and the ceilings are white panels.
The inner planking gives each room its colour.
The saloon starboard armchairs have been fitted in and designed so as to let passengers sit back whatever the tack may be, without having to move at each tacking.
A seat was conceived in the cockpit near the saloon door with the same purpose: to let someone stay comfortably seated with an arm-rest (that also serves as a glove compartment), a quite convenient feature when you leave things in the cockpit.
The cockpit tables are folding and slightly shallow to put things on so that they won't slip when the boat is heeling, and that can be unfolded at anchor to be turned into smooth natural oak wood trays.
COMMENTS OF THE NAVAL ARCHITECT, MR. PHILIPPE BRIAND
Performance, comfort, elegance directed the design of this new aluminium 86' developed for an experienced customer.
The waterline length is maximum thanks to an almost plump bow, the vertical hull sides ensure good upwind speed and chiefly the keel gives the boat a 4m draft in its low position. A generous 400 m² upwind sail area is the guarantee of performance in light airs.
In the boat centre, the deck saloon is bright and designed to ensure a perfect vision outside. The aft area is for the owner's suite and would not be disappointing in a 30 m boat. Two Guest cabins are on each side of the deck saloon. The crew area is in the fore part with a long galley behind the mast.
Thanks to the telescopic keel, the draft can be reduced to 2 metres.
We have made a special point of giving harmony to the imposing proportions of the boat. The freeboard is reasonably high, and the sheer line is positioned aft. Last but not least, the coach house with its long windows is typical of our most recent designs.
The whole should be a perfect «sea runner».

COMMENTS OF THE SHIPYARD, CNB
The new CNB 86, a Philippe Briand designed aluminium superyacht, follows « Grand Bleu Vintage » (CNB 95), the CNB 105 and Hamilton II (CNB 117) in the “Deck Salon” CNB family.
SPIIP, launched in October 2009 in Bordeaux, is an experienced owner’s yacht, whose expectations and requirements have had a rather strong influence on several choices in terms of naval architecture, interior design and construction:
Performance: the waterline is at its maximum with an almost vertical bow, and the hull sides are almost vertical as well for fast beating. Also, the retractable keel gives the boat a 4 m draft in the “down” position, and the upwind sail area is…400 sqm.
Comfort: the central cockpit is extremely pleasant at sea or at a mooring, and the natural light of the deck salon gives an excellent visibility outside. The vast aft suite is reserved for the owners, and the 2 guest cabins are located on each side on the deck salon, while the forward part of the boat is dedicated to the crew…and of course the transom is equipped with a garage for a 3,70 m tender.
Elegance: the coach house is typical of the CNB “Deck Salon” styling, while the freeboard is rather low.
