Inspired by the classic, elegant sailing yachts from the 1930s, all Spirit yachts are custom-designed and built to order by a team of world-class craftsmen and women in Spirit’s waterside headquarters in Suffolk on the east coast of the UK.
With long overhangs, flush decks and a sleek waterline profile, the Spirit 46 displays all the design characteristics of a timeless modern classic yacht. Hand-crafted using sustainable timber and with accommodation for up to four people, the Spirit 46 is a popular choice for owners looking for a performance racing yacht, a simply laid-out coastal cruiser or a combination of the two. With an efficient sail plan and a flat run aft, the Spirit 46 is capable of planing speeds up to 18 knots.

Casino Royale features a memorable scene with James Bond and Vesper Lynd cruising into Venice onboard a Spirit 54 Yacht. Having been handcrafted by Spirit Yachts’ skilled team of boat-builders in Suffolk, the yacht (a 54 foot design named Spirit) was shipped to the Bahamas for filming. From there, Spirit Yachts sailed her to Puerto Rico and through the British Virgin Islands for filming. After shooting scenes in the Caribbean, the yacht was shipped to Croatia and sailed on to Venice. During filming in Venice, the yacht’s rig was taken in and out a total of 10 times to fit under multiple canal bridges. She was the first sailing yacht to go up the Grand Canal in 300 years.
