Tanton: "Planetaire" quarter view

Designed for a couple and built in aluminum by Kanter, this 52' cutter has the distinction of a sunk wheelhouse and deckhouse. The interior has an aft cabin behind the cockpit, and further accommodation forward. The split presented by the wheelhouse offers a self-contained Nav. area to port, a large engine room beneath, and access to the interior port and starboard. Designed for the high latitudes, the rig is conservative in height and the draft is moderate. The boat was conceived for extensive cruising.

      I looked at kanter's site but couldn't find any info about this boat. Your design or rendering? French design? Interesting design!

      (No cockpit, racing style pole, mast mounted off wheelhouse - there was another French yacht, approx 9m, steel or aly, with the very short boom sheeted on the wheelhouse top, in a vee shape construction - I have forgotten the designer, he was in the boatdesign.net directory but is not listed anymore - do you remember him/was this also his design?)
