Sail Magazine stopped by our yard in Camden, ME over the summer to review the LM46 Performance Cruiser.
“Heading out of Lyman-Morse’s newly built Camden facility in mid-May, we were initially confronted with a very glassy Penobscot Bay. Fortunately, the gods did send a few trickles of variable breeze our way as we worked south toward the mouth of the bay.
Happily, this proved to be a very slippery boat, and we were able to make the most of what wind we found. Drew was intent on testing a new sail that he called a “tweener,” built to fly from the sprit. To me, it looked like a slightly high-cut genoa. It did prove effective to windward and carried us as high as 30 degrees to the apparent wind. Cracking off a bit to 40 degrees, I was surprised to see we were making 9 knots in just 8 knots of true wind.”
