Newman Farrins Hardtop Lobster Yacht

Newman Farrins Hardtop Lobster Yacht

SEA WHEELS was built for her original owners who were long time sailors and desired a handsome \"Downeast\" lobster yacht which was economical to run, and as quiet a boat as possible. To achieve this some composite materials, extensive sound insulation, and the Evolution Drive system were incorporated into her building specifications. Her engineer owner, along with the highly regarded Bruce Farrins Boatshop, collaborated together to design many unique features into this 32\' Newman hull. The result is an outstanding example of an ideal \"couples cruiser\" for New England waters. Please call for your inspection and thank you for your interest.
