The deck arrangement has been drawn to be as simple to sail as she will be to maintain. Originally conceived as a low-maintenance deck with no varnished teak, the builder and designer could not re- sist adding a bit of varnished teak nosing to the pilothouse and coach roof as well as the teak cap rail to the bulwark. The net result is undoubtedly worth the effort. Because of her roots as a long distance
family cruiser, the ocean going interior is arranged to provide comfort afl oat for up to six passengers and crew in three double cabins. The large main salon is accessed via the center line passage from the pilothouse. Stepping down three steps, one fi nds oneself in a wide open salon area with convertible dining table to starboard that folds away neatly into a lounging cocktail table. The interior decor is comprised of lightly painted bead board trimmed elegantly with glossy varnished mahogany. Intricate beading along the perimeter of all doors and drawers provides a classical detailing to the interior joinery. The main salon leads to the two symmetrical guest cabins. Each features generously sized upper and lower berths and each cabin is outfi tted with shared cen- ter line bureaus, a design perfected on the many Little Harbors penned by the Fontaine Group. Each guest cabin has its own en suite facilities and appropriately sized hanging lockers. One of these cabins could easily accommodate crew.
Aft of the main salon along the port side one passes through a galley more typically found on yachts of much larger size. Beau- tifully sculpted joinery, abundant counter space, a four burner stove located outboard with a double under-hung stainless steel sink inboard are all components of an excellent sea going galley. The galley is equipped with enough freezer and refrigeration space to keep a young family of six well fed for months at a time. Opposite the large front opening re- frigerator/freezer space, one fi nds a detailed electrical panel and large watertight door that leads into the walk-in engine room. It is truly amazing what the designers have fi t into this 67’ design. Most yachts this size are designed with only the interior accommodations in mind. Fontaine and his team have been able to achieve an excellent accommodations plan while providing an
almost commercial quality to the engine room space. Not one but two or even three people can fi t within the engine room where access is provided by walk-through doors from the galley or aft owner’s shower. The new design boasts additional waterline length added to create a more comfortable and voluminous aft cabin. The owner’s cabin is located aft of the galley where the motion in heavy weather is more comfortable. The cabin is fi t with an over- sized center line walk around double berth with settees port and starboard. The owner’s aft cabin is large and airy with cleverly placed hull ports and deck hatches. The design brief called for a yacht that could go anywhere with a high level of per- formance and comfort. She will be as light as is practical considering the stores and sea kindliness that Lyman-Morse has come to expect on a yacht destined for global travel. An all up displacement of 60,000 lbs. fully loaded, of which 22,000 lbs. is posi- tioned down low in an externally cast bulb keep, a carbon fi ber mast with in boom furling systems and optional carbon rigging will provide exciting sailing performance. Of course one can always design lighter,
narrower, faster yachts, but the objective with this design was to make the fastest boat possible considering the requirements for a shallow draft hull, three private interior cab- ins, a walk in engine room space, comfort, sea kindliness, and extended range. A deep hydro-dynamically shaped centerboard extends the draft from the 6.5’ fi xed draft to over 12’ when lowered, en- abling excellent upwind sailing angles while minimizing wetted surface off the wind. A retractable hydraulic bow thruster is fi tted forward in the forepeak allowing for easier maneuvering in tight quarters.
