Rockport Marine's REMBRANDT REMBRANDT wins “Best


Professionally Built Power- boat” at WoodenBoat Show ROCKPORT - Immediately upon her debut at the Wood- enBoat Show in Mystic, Connecticut, Rockport Ma- rine’s 26-foot cold-molded powerboat REMBRANDT won her class at the Concours d’Elegance. REMBRANDT is a New England-style center console yacht designed by the


Rockport Marine design offi ce. Judges at the annual WoodenBoat Show awarded her “Best Professionally Built Powerboat” for her exceptional craftsmanship in both her hull and interior.


Designed and built by Rockport Marine for a customer who will cruise New York-ar- ea waters, REMBRANDT has a sweeping sheer and generous tumblehome that refl ect the Maine traditions from which she was built. Her Vee hull and Volvo Duoprop out- drive provide a comfortable ride throughout a speed range that tops out at 28 knots. She has a composite center console that is raised with a push of a button to reveal the 200-hp diesel engine below. Her aluminum framed T-top and large round-fronted dodger pro- vide protection from sun and spray. “While very much a custom boat, REMBRANDT’s design is easily adaptable


to a variety of tastes and uses,” said Taylor Allen, president of Rockport Marine. “Our yacht designers envisioned this boat from many perspectives during her design and have ideas for alternative arrangements and modifi cations, even as REMBRANDT is just completing her sea trials. She’s a beau- tiful boat with a lot of possibility.” REMBRANDT was completed in June 2015 and was immediately trailered to the WoodenBoat Show for her debut. The fol- lowing week her owner accepted delivery of the yacht in New York. More information about Rockport Marine’s latest new yacht construction is online at www.rockportma- rine.com.
