Asymmetric Design

ASYMMETRIC DESIGN delivers a boat that’s big for its size.
     As we’ve developed this boat and watched it take shape it’s become increasingly clear that this is a really big 45 footer. Our goal has been to bring you a small boat that’s big in two ways.
     First, the asymmetrical design is a great example of how meticulous engineering can maximize livable space. With the galley up, a large salon, and spacious pilothouse plus two staterooms and separate heads forward there’s ample room for the cruising couple.
     Second, much of the standard equipment we’ve specified is based on our experience with much larger boats. This impacts a variety of systems from hydraulics to anchor tackle and propulsion.
     When the journey is the destination we want to make sure you stay as safe and comfortable as possible.
