Sandy and Helen Jones dropped by to tour the yard during the summer of 2005 when they were on an east coast excursion to find the builder for their ultimate powerboat. After listening to a quick design brief, we asked designer Doug Zurn to come up from Marblehead and meet with the Jones. They hit it off and we started in on a great new design from Doug. We built the boat using our standard SCRIMP infusion system providing the Jones with an exceptionally strong hull for the long distance cruising they plan to do in the Pacific Northwest. Their  flybridge cruiser has an excellent layout with many great details making her a superb design. The twin C-18, 1,000-hp Caterpillar diesels will provide an easy 20 knot cruise with top speed of about 32 knots. The complete design was mocked up on-site before construction, a Lyman-Morse trademark.

Accommodations include a master stateroom with king-size berth with spacious head and shower. The guest cabin is forward guest with separate head and shower. With 3 additional convertible trundle-style berths Mad Max will sleep up to 8. The innovative open floor-plan combines the well-equipped galley (with Sub-zero refrigerator and freezer, four burner electric induction stove and oven, microwave,  wine cooler and more) with a wet bar and seating area perfect for entertaining is created by the raised salon and bridge deck.  The layout provides unobstructed views and clear sight lines throughout. The flybridge with additional seating and wet bar with refrigeration is accessible by a spiral staircase.

After more than two years of planning and construction, this spectacular 62 -- one of our best yet -- was christened and launched on June 19, 2008 with our traditional company-wide celebration.
