British Elegance is Not for Everyone

Screen Shot 2024-09-02 at 10.02.38 PM

VIDEO FROM CANNES. The Fairline Targa 50 Open has the largest coach roof opening in class, allowing the sun and air but not the wind. Below three staterooms are surrounded in rich, high-gloss dark walnut that reeks of old-world yachting. But on deck, she's as modern as the latest design from Milan made for entertaining. The galley is down and out of the way, as it should be.
