Overview
About this vessel
Vesper 72 (originally launched as Momo in 2014) was built by Persico Marine in Italy to the highest standards of grand prix race boat construction. Designed and built as a no-compromise Maxi racer, she represents the pinnacle of performance, technology and reliability in the competitive sailing world.
A two-owner yacht, Vesper has benefited from continuous professional ownership and significant ongoing investment. Each owner has maintained and upgraded the yacht to ensure she remains at the forefront of Maxi racing performance.
Vesper 72 has proven herself as one of the most successful Maxi racing yachts of her generation, with a track record that includes being a 3-time Rolex Maxi Worlds Champion, seven podium finishes in eight Rolex Maxi World Championships, victory at the ORC North American Championship, and wins over the world's top Maxi programs, including Bella Mente at St. Barths.
In 2025, Vesper 72 underwent a major performance upgrade program comprising a new mast, boom and standing rigging, a new-generation racing sail inventory developed with the new rig (with the racing sails having completed only two events) and the addition of 2,000-liter water ballast tanks per side, significantly enhancing power, stability and performance potential.
These upgrades have positioned Vesper 72 as a true modern Maxi racer, ready to compete at the highest level. Currently located in La Ciotat, France, Vesper 72 is fully prepared and race-ready for the Rolex Maxi Worlds and the world's premier Maxi racing events.
A proven champion. A fully upgraded platform. A rare opportunity to acquire one of the most successful Maxi racers in the world.
