Mirabella is a semi-custom built sailing yacht built by Concorde Yachts Thailand. Three units were manufactured between 1990 and 1994. The design concept and business idea came from the Finnish entrepreneur Pekka Koskenkylä who is better known as the founder of Nautor's Swan. Bruce Farr was chosen as the naval architecture for this project and the manufacturing method of mould released GRP (Fibre glass) hand woven sandwich laminate was chosen because it facilitated the fastest possible serial production. The yacht was a very successful charter yacht back then offering absolutely the best available space and comfort the industry had to offer. These features are nowadays considered almost an industry standard.[1][2][3][4][5]
