Lyman-Morse recently launched hull number 3 in their semi-custom Monhegan 42 line, the latest yacht from the long-standing and successful relationship between Lyman-Morse and C. Raymond Hunt Associates.
Riding on Hunt's time-tested deep-V hull design, the Monhegan 42 showcases Lyman-Morse's proven method of creating series-built semi-custom yachts. This allows owners to customize each boat to suit their needs within the existing design; and allows Lyman-Morse to provide many of the attributes of a custom yacht with far less lead time.
The Monhegan 42's power comes from twin 550-horsepower Cummins QSB 6.7 diesels, giving her a top speed of 32 knots and a cruising speed of 28 knots, plenty of get-up-and-go to carry her around the New England cruising grounds that she'll call home. The engines are paired to traditional shafts and props in tunnels, providing the Monhegan 42 with a shoal-friendly draft of just 3 feet.
As with every boat Lyman-Morse build, the Monhegan 42 combines traditional style with cutting-edge construction technology and modern amenities, such as SCRIMP resin-infusion in the hull, which maximizes strength and reduces weight, Humphrey Interceptor trim tabs, and Side Power bow and stern thrusters, just to name a few.
The helm station of hull no. 3 is custom to the owner's specific needs, with oversized 17-inch display screens, as well as bow and stern thrusters for easy docking. Below, there is a galley and dinette/lounge area for meal prep and dining, a head, shower, and primary stateroom forward. This owner wanted to be able to lie down on the settee and relax, so the team at Lyman incorporated a custom footwell into the layout to allow for optimal relaxation. Interior joinery is made from South American mahogany, with teak and wenge accents.
The Monhegan 42 exemplifies Lyman-Morse's unparalleled ability to produce bespoke, semi-custom boats that deliver unrivaled performance, safety, and convenience at sea.
