Finnish sailing yacht builder Baltic Yachts is set to enter the multihull market. The company will reveal details of its first-ever multihull project at the upcoming Monaco Yacht Show (25-28 September).

Construction of the new yacht is scheduled to begin this month, with design and engineering phases already well underway. The shipyard will release more information about the project before the Monaco Yacht Show begins. 

The firm’s newly appointed CEO, Tom von Bonsdorff, along with EVP Henry Hawkins and sales director Kenneth Nyfelt, will be available for meetings at the show. 

The shipyard will also showcase the Baltic 85 Mini Y, a 26-metre cruising sloop designed by Bill Dixon. The yacht, currently for sale through Edmiston, features high sailing performance, easy handling, and a four-guest layout with a spacious owner’s suite.

Recent deliveries from Baltic Yachts include the Baltic 80 Emma, a maxi cruiser-racer, and the third Baltic 68 Café Racer. The company also completed a significant refit of the Baltic 175 Ravenger, transforming the world’s largest full-carbon composite sloop from a cruiser into a high-performance sailing yacht.

Upcoming projects include the Baltic 121 Custom, a world cruiser designed by Malcolm McKeon set for 2026 delivery, and the fourth hull in the Baltic 68 Café Racer series.

Earlier this year, Baltic Yachts consolidated its operations at a new waterfront facility in Jakobstad, Finland. The firm reported this move to improve efficiency and reduce its production footprint.

Baltic’s EVP Henry Hawkins says: “It’s an exciting time here at Baltic Yachts with another major milestone project about to start and the whole team beginning to see real benefits and opportunities now that we’re fully moved into our new, state-of-the art production base.

“And we’re looking forward to Monaco Yacht Show, which is always a great place to catch up and connect with many of our clients and partners.”
