PEGASUS 67

The Pegasus 67 is designed for safe and effortless shorthanded sailing in all weather conditions. Sail handling with sheets, halyards, single reefing lines, endless furling lines and tack lines, takes place in the cockpit. Mainsheet arch keeps the highly loaded and dangerous sheet clear of the crew yet still allows for easy and accurate sail trim.

Two steps between the cockpit and saloon connects the cockpit and saloon in a large uniform leaving space. Sliding door and a lot of handles makes moving around easy and safe.

The glass windshield and hard top above the cockpit give excellent protection from harsh environments, including excess sun and heat. Sliding windshield windows, roof hatches and a foldable cabrio roof provide ample light and fresh air when needed. And fully closed from the sides and in the back with the additional heating enables a great comfort in winter and cold days.

Inside navigation station includes a comfortable and safe seating for two and offers 360 horizon visibility and direct view to across the dec to the bow and through the ceiling hatch on the sail. With the big 27’’ screen autopilot and optional engine throttle sailing and controlling Pegasus 67 is easy and safe also from inside.

Reliability is fundamental to successful and stress-free cruising. The best possible equipment available isn’t always the most expensive, but rather products chosen for a combination of their robustness, fail-safe or backup functions, plus worldwide service and support networks. On Pegasus 67 we have redundant autopilot, charging, batteries, water pumps, navigation plotters, communication antennas, water maker and many other items.

Essential installations are carefully planned for easy maintenance, with all important spares parts supplied with every new Pegasus 67. For the complex and important systems we have a built-in manual override mode that guarantees continued operation in case of problems.

The lightweight carbon fibre gimbaled settee is designed to gimbale on the boat’s longitudinal axis, compensating for the angle of the heel and thereby keeping the seating level. This minimises the physical strain needed to brace yourself to stay upright and helps reduce the disorientation that contributes to seasickness.

The base price includes complete equipment and service needed for safe and comfortable long-distance sailing.

Standard specifications include a generator, two watermakers, a hydro generator, solar panels, a LiFePO4 battery bank, air-conditioning, an induction cooker, a washing machine, a navigation system, a redundant autopilot and radar. A complete set of cutlery, pans, dishes, glasses, cups, bedding, plus full mooring and safety equipment are also included.

Before the handover and onboarding for the owner, each Pegasus 67 is transported to the marina for final assembly (keel, rudders, mast and rigging, sails...), configuration & systems commissioning, then splashed and thoroughly tested.

Standard equipment includes all navigation, communication and safety gear, plus the essentials for comfortable living on board enables the owner can bring only personal items and sail away.

To maximise safety and ease of manoeuvres, the Pegasus 67 is designed for everything to be managed from the cockpit. All halyards and sheets are led to stoppers next to the helm stations with access from both sides. Including single-line reefing for two or three reefs. The tack line, head sail and downwind furling lines, are also routed aft, while the mainsheet is safely located overhead on an arch.

Four electric winches take the effort out of sail handling, while the rig is designed for several headsails to remain hoisted while furled, including the Code 0, J1, and J2, making for quick and easy sail changes.

The Pegasus 67 prioritises safe movement at sea, with secure grab rails throughout, plus rounded furniture with built-in grab handles. Short distances between the different areas mean safe grip is always within reach, even on the cockpit roof and coachroof.

Jackstays and strong points are provided both on deck and in the cockpit. Additionally, the 75 cm high solid pushpit and pulpit are taller than standard, further contributing to safety and the ease of moving around the boat.

In addition to two standard water makers for almost unlimited fresh water on passage, the Pegasus 67 has built-in filters to ensure impurities are removed when filling water tanks in port. There’s also a further layer of filtration for drinking water at the galley. To reduce fresh water consumption the galley has a sea water supply for rinsing dishes, while toilets can be switched between fresh and sea water flushing modes.

The hull construction is of a carefully controlled hybrid of carbon and glass fibre, with a PVC core and uses vacuum-infused vinylester resins. The combination of glass and carbon fibres increases impact resistance, while simultaneously improving structural stability and reducing displacement. The boat benefits from a monocoque construction, in which the bulkheads and floors are fully laminated to the hull, while the deck is also glued and laminated to the hull. This creates an extremely stiff structure, without adding unnecessary weight.

A crash box in the bow further mitigates against risk of collision with floating objects. This foam-filled compartment is right forward under the anchor locker and is fully self-contained, so water cannot enter the rest of the boat, even if the hull is damaged.

Equally, the anchor locker and tender garage aft are watertight from the rest of the hull.

A robust top keel plate is bolted into a moulded hull recess, which evenly spreads keel loads over the hull structure. This is engineered and built to withstand grounding at low speeds.

The innovative keel design, with twin centreline fins joined by the bulb, improves directional stability, making the Pegasus 6x easier to steer and creating an easier motion at sea, while minimising drag.
