The Wauquiez Amphora represents a pivotal era for the French shipyard, bridging the gap between the racingoriented designs of the late 1960s and the dedicated bluewater cruising philosophy that would later define the Pilot Saloon range. Launched in 1975 and produced until approximately 1980, the Amphora was designed by the esteemed British firm Holman & Pye, who were responsible for many of Wauquiez’s most successful early hulls. Positioned as a robust centercockpit ketch, the Amphora was built during a period when Henri Wauquiez was focused on creating "extraordinary boats" capable of longdistance passagemaking. According to the Wauquiez Heritage archives, the model was a significant commercial success for the yard, with roughly 138 units produced, solidifying the brand's reputation for highquality fiberglass construction and joinery.
