Road Taken is a proven blue-water performance cruiser, built for global adventures without compromise.
Designed with a perfect balance of elegance and functionality, its overall concept and interior/exterior styling were envisioned by Nauta Design, while Farr Yacht Design provided the expert naval architecture, including the sail plan and appendages. Bringing this vision to life, Southern Wind Shipyard combined advanced materials and cutting-edge construction techniques with its renowned craftsmanship.
With a modern and striking aesthetic, Road Taken offers an exceptional on-deck experience. Its panoramic deck saloon provides a 270-degree view, seamlessly complemented by a spacious sunbathing area nestled between the crew quarters and the dedicated guest cockpit.
Designed for both long-range cruising and day sailing, the deck layout features ergonomic solutions that enhance comfort and ease of navigation. Inside, the rational and thoughtfully designed layout ensures a harmonious blend of luxury and practicality.
Since her sale in 2019, Road Taken has mainly cruised in the Mediterranean except for a summer cruise in Scotland in 2022 and a crossing to the Caribbean for winter 2024/2025.
Meticulously maintained to the highest standards, Road Taken has undergone a continuous program upgrades and improvements to keep her working like new.
