powerboat
French & Webb: Webfoot
French & Webb’s new FW39 Webfoot is a 39’ cold-molded powerboat with a hull form reminiscent of the Maine lobsterboat and "sailorly" touches throughout.
From Rum to Lobsters
The qualities that made them good for rum-running during Prohibition also made builder Will Frost’s boats good for lobstering. His semi-displacement hulls, renowned for maintaining speed at capacity, have influenced the design of lobsterboats ever since.
MJM: Mary Johnstone's Motorboat
When J/Boats’ Bob Johnstone set out to build a new powerboat for his wife, Mary, he turned to fellow sailors to make it a reality. The result was a fresh take on what makes a good powerboat: the MJM 34z, the first in a series of successful motoryachts for MJM Yachts.
Bruckmann Yachts: Abaco 40
The Bruckmann Abaco 40, a Mark Ellis design with a full-skeg pedigree, delivers elegance, style, performance, and maneuverability. Built in Canada, the boats are finished in Maine.
John Atkin's Ninigret
Some boats are better suited for older folks, while others work better for the younger set, as Bill Boyd and his son, Ben, learned when they each went looking for a boat.
