Lyman-Morse Boatbuilding

Introducing the first of its kind - “Firefly” is the first lithium-ion, fully-electric, USCG subchapter-T boat. Supplemental solar panels help charge the 49’ aluminum catamaran. This groundbreaking project was commissioned by Upstream Alliance for use on the Delaware River, where they provide on-the-water experiences for conservation leaders who can improve public access, clean water, and coastal resilience. Launching in 2025. We will be sharing more about this exciting project and the story behind the organization making it happen. https://lnkd.in/gMbCjgJ4

Great article in Soundings Magazine about the rich maritime history of Camden and how we're continuing the legacy with the Camden Classics Cup. It's been such an honor watching this event grow since its inception in 2016; building it to become part of the new history of the area is such a treat. https://lnkd.in/g6CUaUZV

Building a boat is an art form, but flipping it over is one, too. Shout out to the Thomaston team for making the hull flip of our new Hood 42 LM look easy. The first views inside the cold-molded Douglas fir and western red cedar hull are so stunning. This vessel (part of our continued collaboration with CW Hood Yachts) is going to be an absolute showstopper. Her timeless elegance melds beautifully with modern performance and advanced technology package. She'll be fast thanks to her Volvo Penta of the Americas D6 engines with integrated trim tab system.

Pleased to be working with Revel Yachts to bring their new 44S to life.

It's official -- Lyman-Morse has begun construction on the new third model in our motoryacht series with C.W. Hood Yachts. We have a rich history of building boats with Chris Hood -- together we’ve created the popular Hood 35 LM and the inspiring Hood 57 LM -- yachts that are as well-designed, well-built, and well-loved as any afloat. And now, we’re proud to announce the Hood 42 LM, a new flybridge cruiser from Lyman-Morse and C.W. Hood Yachts. The Hood 42 LM brings to life a timeless elegance, evoking a golden age of yachting on the outside, but under the waterline she sports a modern hull shape optimized for comfort and performance, and she’s constructed with the latest in materials and boatbuilding techniques. The Hood 42 LM features a lower cabin with large owner’s stateroom, enclosed shower and head, and plenty of storage. The main deck features a single-level open living and entertaining space that combines the lower helm, galley, and salon. The space is open, airy, and full of natural light and ventilation thanks to plenty of thoughtfully placed power windows, with the galley to port and a large settee and table to starboard. Her flybridge gives the helmsperson a commanding view, with 360-degree sightlines, perfect for close quarters maneuvering or just taking in the scenery. Power for the Hood 42 LM comes from twin Volvo DPS drives that will provide her with a comfortable cruise in the mid 30-knot range. Hull No. 001 is currently under construction at our yard in Thomaston. This is going to be a project to watch! https://lnkd.in/gAsbaDA4

We enjoyed hosting WCVB Channel 5 when their team came to film a segment at Lyman-Morse during Camden's annual US Toboggan Nationals. All work and no play makes for a long winter ... so we had 3 LM teams come out for the annual competition, and dozens more come to cheer them on. We're lucky to have a great crew here that embraces the spirit of competition together each year! Check out the final cut from yesterday's episode. https://lnkd.in/g8Dh7H3V

Paul Kassabian is not only a brilliant structural engineer; he also creates spectacular videos explaining how structures are designed and how they work. His video detailing the genesis of the Kendall/MIT Gateway entrance though to completion provides interesting insight into this unique project, where architecture, engineering, composites, lighting and infrastructure fuse in an iconic addition to the landscape of the Kendall/MIT Gateway. We hope you get a chance to enjoy the beauty and scale of this project when you next find yourself in Cambridge, MA. Honored to have been a part of this landmark, award-winning, project. https://lnkd.in/gN68sCUm
