Exciting project needs new owner
This fine vessel was being built for a client who had wanted a boat from us since 1994. Unfortunately, he was caught up in the subprime disaster
and was not one of those who received TARP funds and bonuses. He was not able to continue with this project
and had to abandon it.
You can pick up the contract as is, where is, paying only for the completion of the project from this point forward.
Our client has about $100,000 invested, which will come through to the new owner when he or she assumes the contract. The boat is about one quarter finished and presently looks as shown on the Construction photos page, reached through the link in the upper left corner of this page.
You not only get the financial advantage of stepping into the project in the middle of construction, but also the advantage of being the number one project on our building floor. You will not have to wait for construction to start.
Want to go fast in style?
This custom boat is currently in build at our shop. The design brief from our client was to go as fast as possible with a single Diesel. The boat was to be as comfortable as is reasonable and seaworthy enough to run long distances offshore. Further, he wanted a stylish boat that would go faster than it looked.
Powering
We started of course with the powerplant, choosing the most powerful Volvo I/O made. We went with the I/O because they have the least underwater resistance and thus will be fastest for the horsepower, the very reason that they are chosen for offshore race boats. The Diesel adds reliability and range.
Hull
After choosing the powerplant, it was just a matter of putting it in the smallest hull that would provide the required strength, seakeeping, and accommodations. The boat has a nice cockpit for entertaining, an enclosed head, as well as sleeping and cooking facilities. We did extensive studies to optimize speed, comfort, and range.
Style
A traditional look, laid teak deck and cockpit sole, and finest joinery sends the perfect message for this client. |
