MALA CONDUCTA - A BEAUTIFUL MORELLI AND MELVIN 60' BUILT BY LYMAN MORSE


This great looking cat was launched in April by Lyman Morse. With its reverse bows I have to admit it is one of the most beautiful cat launched in her size. Again a great Morelli and Melvin design.
MALA CONDUCTA was designed to be fast and comfortable. The shipyard did some testing to know wether to build in pre-preg or SCRIMP infusion method. They went for pre-preg. The mock up was carefully worked through with the owners. As you can see the interior is modern with light wood.

Two other 60 footer Morelli and Melvin designed with reverse bows are currently being built by Westerly Marine in California. I will introduced them in a future post.

LYMAN MORSE - NIGEL IRENS - 82 ' ROCKETEER

Lyman Morse is a shipyard located in Maine with over a century of custom boat building. They have started to work on a 82 ' catamaran project "ROCKETEER" with the famous british architect Nigel Irens.

Lyman Morse has built and launched all kinds of yachts, from classic sturdy motor yachts to elegant sea worthy sailing monohulls and a high tech catamaran such as recently a 61 ' Morelli and Melvin design. "ROCKETTER" owner curently owns a 56' catamaran but wanted more space and confort and performance for long range cruising. Nigel Irens has designed some of the most famous racing Multihull including the last record breakers Francis Joyon IDEC 2, Thomas Coville SODEBO, and Ellen Mac Arthur B&Q/CASTORAMA. No doubt this 82' luxury catamaran will no lack performance.

No more information for this project yet but I will wach for news for you and keep you updated.
