Straight out of the mind of Jimmy Buffett, this 42 Freeman Cat with a custom Merritt-built house is turning a lot of heads — not just parrot heads. Learn how two iconic boat builders came together to build Jimmy Buffett’s fishing boat.
The iconic builder has placed a considerable amount of chips into building out an outboard-powered portfolio, starting with a 40-foot center console. We break down what this means for the brand’s future.
Exterior Designer, Luiz DeBasto of Design based in Miami chats with Yachts International about the 295-foot ( 90-meter) motoryacht DAR built by Oceanco.
The Finnish builder has only one request: Take their rocket-ship-like cruisers for a spin. Naturally, we relented.
Heesen and Winch Design teamed up to create Xventure —a new type of explorer yacht conceived to take adventurous owners off the beaten path in
Is there really such a thing as American yacht design? Some of the Western Hemisphere’s top designers plead a convincing case.
Benetti’s Ocean Paradise: An owner/designer’s perspective on bringing the magic of Asia to the seven seas By Frances and Michael Howorth THE 180-FOOT (54.8-METER) BENETTI
One new design recently launched from McConaghy Boats while Austrian deign firm Motion Code: Blue has released renders of a yacht that would make a stir in every port she pops up in.
South African builder Southern Wind is hard at work on the third hull of the SW102, a raised-salon version of this sailing-yacht line. This yacht will have a slightly longer hull (it is expected to finish at 104 feet/31.7 meters), in part to make room for a garage capable of holding a 13-foot (4-meter) tender.
Ferretti engineers certainly started right by establishing clear design goals for the 960 from the very beginning. The most basic one was to create a yacht small enough to be classed by CE as a pleasure boat, meaning a crew would not be mandated, yet offer features that would allow it to compete with vessels larger than 100 feet.
