The Mystic 60 represents a highwater mark for the collaboration between prestigious Taiwanese yard Ta Shing Yacht Building Ltd. and the legendary naval architect German Frers. Conceived in the mid1980s by Alan Morgan and Mike Pappas of Mystic Yachts, the design brief was to create an uncompromising bluewater cruiser that eschewed the heavy, sluggish characteristics of traditional offshore vessels in favor of "spirited performance" and "fingertip" handling. Built with the same obsessive attention to detail that Ta Shing applied to the Mason and Nordhavn lines, the Mystic 60 emerged as a semicustom yacht capable of swift transoceanic passages while maintaining the grace of a classic performance sloop. The hull is a sophisticated GRP sandwich construction utilizing handlaid Knytex glass and a Divinycell core, a technique that provides significant stiffness and thermal insulation while keeping the displacement surprisingly moderate for a 60footer.
