IY 9.98

Racing performance, pure sailing pleasure

The Italia Yachts 9.98 is a fast, responsive yacht that remains easy to handle. Designed for top racing performance, it maintains perfect balance even in light winds, making it ideal for both competitive sailing and sporty cruising.

Its hull is the result of advanced hydrodynamic analysis, offering exceptional symmetry, stability, and efficiency both upwind and downwind.

Comfort and Functionality

Twin wheels, an integrated bowsprit, and teak in the cockpit combine elegance and practicality.

With two cabins, an aft bathroom, a galley, and a navigation area, the IY 9.98 offers a refined yet practical layout. Lightweight removable elements help optimize displacement for racing.

Construction and Details

The hull and deck are built using a fiberglass sandwich with bi-axial and unidirectional fabrics, vinylester resin, and carbon reinforcements - ensuring lightness and structural strength.

The highest expression of hydrodynamic research, enhanced by that touch of magic which transforms a known combination of elements (foils, surfaces, weight distribution, etc.) into a unique – and above all, winning – configuration. No hull windows are provided, in order to further improve overall hull stiffness and reduce structural weight.

In carbon, naturally – perfectly balanced between minimal weight and maximum strength to accommodate any type of headsail.

State-of-the-art rigging at its highest level of technical refinement. Every detail is designed to win: sails, standing and running rigging, and fine-tuning systems represent the very best on the market – and if something doesn't exist, it's custom-built in our yard under guidance from our race team.

Performance comes first, without compromising the natural elegance of functionality and logical design. Every piece of deck hardware is placed exactly where expected, ensuring optimal handling, full control, and maximum safety.

Carefully engineered for maximum racing efficiency. Generous dimensions and millimetric precision in control lines. Everything is exactly where it should be – nothing is missing except the unnecessary.
