Yak

Yesterday I posted an article about the smaller of the two new designs developed for Front Street Shipyard of Belfast, Maine. Here's the larger one at 130' length overall.

Here are the arrangement and deck plans.

This boat was designed for a repeat customer. He originally owned a 200' Sparkman & Stephens designed motoryacht and he wanted to capture the same aesthetic in a smaller and more manageable vessel. This design is 130' overall. Here's a snapshot of his original boat (design #2034), circa 1975.

He then asked us to design a sailing yacht of the same name of 126' overall. It's an interesting motorsailer design (design #2477), circa 1984, shown below. Both of these yachts are still in operation today.

The new design is powered by twin Caterpillar 3512 B diesel engines rated at 2,250hp each for a top speed of 23 knots and 20 knot cruise. The construction is all aluminum. The boat features an outdoor pool on the expansive aft deck.
