MORRIS YACHT 42


If you've spent some time browsing through our web site, you've probably gathered that the Morris philosophy isn't intended to break new ground as much as to establish the high ground. Morris yachts have always exemplified the ideals that define the world's best cruising yachts. In one sense the Morris 42 does it better than most, because it begins to provide many of the amenities and comforts of the truly large yacht, yet with smaller boat handling characteristics.

The Morris 42’s ingenious use of space gives her the feel of a much larger yacht. She offers a luxurious two-stateroom layout with a spacious galley U-shaped galley. A head with separate shower stall is another welcome luxury on a yacht of this size.

On deck, like most Morris models, the 42 looks a lot like a classic yacht. There are real bulwarks to secure your footing, and sturdy hand holds on the cabin top. The cabin sides exhibit good-sized opening ports throughout, but no huge windows.

The 42 cockpit is laid out for cruising, with very comfortable seating and a roomy cockpit locker. Visibility forward is exceptional. You can gain a good view past the bow without the need for a raised helm seat. And the broad expanse of smooth cabin top provides sure footing for doing a harbor furl of the mainsail.

While the Morris 42 provides plenty of comfort for cruising, she - as with all Morris Yachts - has shown enough speed to support a racing career. The amidships location of her engine and batteries, U-shaped galley, and navigation and electrical stations in virtually the same plane athwartships minimizes pitching which is vital to true racing performance. (Cruisers won't mind reaching Bermuda a half day earlier either!)

The Morris 42 loads a world of comfort and live-aboard features that any sailing companion would want into a compact, rugged ship that looks "yare," "Bristol fashion," or... just plain lovely.

MORRIS YACHT 38







38 under sail
38 under sail
Not all design projects start with a blank sheet of paper. In this case, the starting point was a highly successful 36 footer, the MORRIS 36, of which Tom Morris had built some 32 beautifully individualized yachts before his clients suggested a "stretched" version. The 38 is a lengthened version which would offer additional sailing length for higher speed in open ocean conditions, increased lazarette stowage, and a more "modern" look.

Once the design got going, it became obvious that there were other areas in which the additional length could pay dividends. What started as an alteration merely to the hull, led to a new deck mold with 18 inches of additional cabin area beneath full headroom. This in turn engendered a new interior design which took advantage of a significant increase in usable cabin space.

A great deal of attention was paid to deck styling, resulting in a more contemporary, sleeker profile which marries perfectly with the longer hull. The house front is curved rather than flat, the housetop camber increased in order to lower the perceived height of the housesides, and the aft end of the house raked to serve more comfortably as a seatback when relaxing beneath the shelter of the dodger.

To date seven of these stunning yachts have been launched. Like a classic Harley or the J3 Cub, the MORRIS 38 is an example of classic design that keeps getting better with age and judicious, conservative design improvements.

MORRIS YACHT 34


The Morris 34 is in every respect a sailor's sailboat. To help show the diversity of the Morris fleet, we sent Morris 34, ANDIAMO, to the 1998 Annapolis Boat Show and berthed her alongside our largest, fastest, most custom effort ever, Morris 48, REINDEER, the ultimate blend of offshore speed and pure luxury. Commentary around the docks was that Morris Yachts had stolen the show, outdoing the erstwhile leaders in the yacht building world. These two boats so outshone the assemblage that we felt both were destined to be finalists for Cruising World magazine's coveted Boat of the Year Award.

To our delight, ANDIAMO won not only best in type (mid-size cruising sail), but also the ultimate prize -- Best Overall Boat of the Year for 1998! (Click on News) Although there have been many winners in various categories in the ten year history of the Boat of the Year Awards, the holy grail of this contest is Best Overall Boat. Only Morris Yachts and one other American builder have twice won Overall Boat of the Year. It is not hard to make a case that the 34 is the best cruising sailboat in the world today under 35 feet. Most seasoned sailors can tell that at a glance.



Through the use of "rib-core" engineering, tapered lamination, and exceptional craftsmanship in the accommodations and outfitting, the overall weight of our 34 remains in the moderate category. Combine this with a balanced rig and modern sailcloth, and you have a cruising boat that, despite all its luxurious appointments, flies upwind and down.


The 34 is a Morris, and you can have yours as you like it. The cockpit is set up for either tiller or wheel steering, and interiors can be customized. In its original configuration or any other vision you might have for a Morris 34 of your own, no matter what you've owned before, this "Boat of the Year" is a sure candidate for the boat of your life.Principal Dimensions:

TARTAN YACHT 3400

The new Tartan 3400 is both a tribute to the rich history of her predecessors and the embodiment of Tartan Yachts' dedication to advanced construction and equipment technologies. Following in the wake of nearly 1,000 34-foot Tartans, spread over a production run from the late 60's (Tartan 34 Classic) through the late 80's (Tartan 34II), she shares traditional good looks with both models and embraces innovative design elements to simplify sailhandling and provide superior performance. These refinements to the performance cruiser are made possible by Tartan's dedication to advancements in materials and methods, previously available only in the custom boat market or through prohibitively expensive options.

High-performance, high-volume hull design

The 3400's high volume hull form provides enough space for exceptional cruising accommodations and storage and a powerful shape that is easily driven and in balance over a wide range of sailing conditions. Forward sections are slightly veed providing an easy motion in a seaway and her aft sections are full and flat offering high speed potential in heavy conditions. The hull's volume is evenly distributed through her length, which provides a symmetrical shape at all heel angles and maintains her light helm in more challenging conditions.

A deck designed for sailing

The deck is designed for maximum comfort and safety and embraces classic yacht aesthetics. Her cockpit offers high seatbacks for comfort and a deep and secure cockpit for safety. Wide sidedecks allow her crew to move fore and aft without being encumbered by the excessive house structures seen on so many current production offerings. The wrap-around coaming not only provides a striking tie to her heritage, it also serves as a splash rail and convenient location for mounting a dodger, both of which offer additional cockpit comfort and security. As with all Tartans, the 3400 features tall and distinctive teak toerails that not only enhance her yacht status but also provide an important toe hold in rough weather sailing. Ventilation, always a Tartan priority, is provided by an abundance of stainless steel opening portlights, deck hatches, and dorades.

A Tartan's good looks have always provided her owners with head-turning pride entrances into harbors as well as helping maintain their value by not chasing the fad of the moment. The 3400 continues this tradition with a sophisticated hull and deck design.

Built for strength, safety, and excellent speed

The 3400 takes full advantage of Tartan's advanced sailboat manufacturing techniques. Her hull laminate is a composite of uni-directional e-glass, epoxy resin, and CoreCell linear polyurethane coring that is oven-cured to 145 degrees. The exceptional adhesive properties of oven-cured epoxy allow Tartan to eliminate the "fat" found in normal production boat hulls. Her structure is comprised of all high-tensile strength uni-directional fibers rather than the weak and heavy chopped-strand fiber that dominates the laminate of other builders. Through strict resin control, utilizing resin impregnation equipment, Tartan delivers a 65% structural glass reinforcement-to-resin ration while the vacuum-bagged "one shot" process provides a void-free laminate with pound-for-pound strength characteristics 10 times greater than polyester laminates. The weight saved in the laminate can then be used for ballast and accommodations, improving both performance and comfort.

The 3400's deck utilizes Tartan's custom resin infusion process, which employs high-strength, specially formulated vinylester resin, uni-directional e-glass reinforcements and Baltec AL600 balsa coring. Highly loaded hardware is fastened to the deck with stainless steel machine screws that pass through reinforced, solid glass core windows and are tapped into 6061 T6 aluminum backing plates. Beyond incredible strength and longevity, this installation allows "on-deck" servicing for deck hardware. Tartan's deck construction produces a lightweight, yet stiff and strong deck structure, further complimenting the 3400's excellent overall sailing characteristics.

The 3400's double-spreader, tapered, carbon-fiber mast is stiffer, stronger, and lighter than the aluminum masts found on virtually all production sailboats in her size range. These characteristics produce a rig that is easier to tune, remains stable in heavy air conditions, increases stability by decreasing weight aloft, and provides an easier motion in a seaway due to less pitching moment. While carbon masts remain an expensive option list item for other builders, Tartan delivers each boat with a carbon mast as standard equipment.

Three keels to suit your needs

Using innovative geometry in the attachment area of the keel, three choices allow you to tailor-fit your Tartan 3400 to your sailing area. Additionally, the keels are interchangeable without hull modification, allowing maximum flexibility for now and the future. Change your sailing area, change your keel. If you decide to sell your 3400 her new owner can order a different keel match-made to his or her sailing area.

For those without draft restrictions the 6' 6" bulbed fin will offer optimal performance. The Tartan Beavertail keel offers excellent stability, righting moment, and good upwind performance with a mid-range draft of 4' 11". A Tartan trademark through the '70s and '80s, the keel/centerboard configuration is also available on the 3400 for those of you who sail in very shallow areas. The 4-foot, board-up draft allows gunkholing into shallow creeks and harbors, under sail or power, while the bulb shape and board-down draft of 6' 8" produce excellent stability and superb upwind performance.

Sailing fast can be easy

The 3400's sail-handling equipment and overall rig design are aimed at achieving optimum performance with minimum hassle. The mast is built with a unique, integrated, low-friction track system, allowing the full-battened main to be easily raised and lowered within a lazy jack system. Custom-made for Tartan, the carbon-fiber boom is a "trough" design further aiding mainsail drops and mainsail flaking. To cover the main, simply pull over the boom-stored sailcover and you're done.

By optimizing the Tartan 3400's strength and weight characteristics and designing an easily driven hull the Tartan 3400's standard headsail can be a smart, roller-furling 100% jib, trimmed to a self-tacking cabintop track. This working sail, with the tack located just aft of the stem, is used for all upwind and heavy-air sailing while providing effortless tacking for sailing shorthanded or in a confined harbor. When sailing off the wind the optional high-clewed furling reacher can be deployed for top performance.

The new Tartan 3400 pays tribute to her pedigree by embracing the strengths of her predecessors while capitalizing on the leading-edge construction techniques and equipment used by today's Tartan Yachts. With her plush accommodations, carbon mast and boom, a mainsail that raises and drops from its own cocoon, a rollerfurling, self-tacking, 100% jib defining simple elegance, and even a choice of three interchangeable keel configurations the Tartan 3400 will redefine the family performance cruiser. Optimal performance with minimal hassle, the way sailing is, not should be, when you sail a Tartan 3400.

Her easily-driven hull, powerful main, and self-tacking 100% jib provide optimum performance with minimum hassle

CABO YACHT 35 EXPRESS


Created by the boat building team of Henry Mohrschladt and Michael Howarth, the same craftsman selected by Fortune Magazine for building one of the top 100 products in the world, the Cabo 35 Express is a benchmark in design, construction and performance. And if you think that's just another fish story, listen to what the experts - those seasoned professionals who earn their living on boats - have to say about the CABO 35 Express. You'll find them using words like seaworthy, fast, agile, accessible, and luxurious.

As an offshore powerboat racer, Dick Ornstein knows that it takes masterful blend of design and construction to achieve a high level of performance. When it came time to purchase a sportfisher for his personal use, he chose CABO for just those reasons. Opt for the turbo charged and after-cooler 435 hp (422 shaft hp) Caterpillar V-8 diesel, and the CABO 35 Express has a top speed of more than 40mph at 2750 rpm. Even more important in the real world, however, is that the CABO Express can eat up the miles at a comfortable cruising speed of 33 mph and still have a range of nearly 350 miles!* This combination of speed and range gets you to a far away fishing ground faster and allows you to stay longer than any comparable boat. Speed and cruising range are a major part of the performance equation, but serious fisherman want to know how the boat actually behaves. In a word, flawlessly. Whether you're backing down on a billfish, spinning to stay with tuna, or firewalling the throttles to head for new fishing grounds, the CABO 35 Express responds instantly to helm and engines.
*Based on Boating Magazine test #866.

Fishability
To pursue a new IGFA world record for marlin on 8lb test line, Pam Basco needed a boat that was fast and agile. Her choice? CABO 35, of course. The ability of the CABO 35 Express to back down fast and pivot nimbly can make the difference between boating a trophy fish or reeling in a broken line. And, because of her wide beam, modified-V bottom and low center of gravity, the CABO is a fighting platform with unequaled stability in all sea conditions. Serious anglers will appreciate the open space below the cockpit gunwales, which allows you to lock your knees comfortably under the padding while fighting a big fish. And if you need to get forward quickly, the wide non-skid decks are fully protected by the oversized (1-1/4" dia.) rail that surrounds the foredeck.

Some boats raise fish and some boats just can't, but the success of the CABO 35 Express speaks for itself. The ability to provide clean, strait alleys for trolling lures can greatly improve the number of strikes you get. And the CABO hull design, with two small propeller pockets and clean underwater lines, gives two perfect blue trolling alley directly behind the boat. Your lures will run strait and clean in a tantalizing spot, even when turning. Every carefully planned feature of the CABO 35 Express, from built in casting to hold on the bow to the perfect blue trolling alleys, will help you raise that record fish.

Exterior
The innovative hull design of the CABO 35 Express gives wider stance to the placement of the powerplant, giving maneuverability to the CABO 35 that is simply unheard of in other boats. This well balanced hull not only jumps onto plane instantly, but also provides an extraordinarily stable platform when loafing along at trolling speeds. With a fine bow and 16 degrees of deadrise at the transom, the CABO 35 Express runs easily in choppy seas. even when lying broadside to swells, the wide reversed double chines dampen the roll and give the CABO an easy motion.

The goal of the CABO team sounds deceptively simple: "To produce the best engineered and best built boat in the world." And, with the CABO 35 Express, their success at reaching that level is evident in every detail. Using the finest materials and uncompromising methods, dedicated craftsmen have created a yacht that outperforms, outlasts, and is more comfortable that the competition.

The CABO 35 Express is at the leading edge of construction, and every material is the finest to be found. Careful thought has been given to creating an incredibly strong yet lightweight hull. The biaxial stitched fiberglass roving is bonded with vinylester resins that are not only 10% lighter and 15% stronger than conventional boatbuilding resins, but provide protection against osmotic blistering. The hull is solid fiberglass below the waterline for strength and low maintenance, while topsides and deck are a baltec-coated sandwich to reduce weight and provide sound insulation.

Exterior, cont.
Adding even greater resistance to torsion and flexure is the CABO's highly sophisticated reinforced fiberglass interior module. Hull and interior are bonded into one monolithic structure, a method for superior to conventional techniques. You'll find the CABO 35 Express to be flawlessly fabricated and significantly quieter than other boats. Take time to study the effective non-skid deck pattern of the cockpit, and you'll find that it gives sure footing in all conditions without being overly abrasive.

Sight down the glossy hull sides and you'll see none of the usual bumps, dents, or finish flaws found on most boats. Consider the crisply molded deck and cockpit detailing, and you'll discover elegance that is a pleasure to touch. Superior design, uncompromising construction and rigid attention to every possible detail combine to create the CABO 35 Express.

Helm
The clean layout of the helm console on the CABO 35 Express allows more than ample room for today's sophisticated electronics. Clear, easy to read aircraft gauges and positive acting rocker switches insure that you will instantly know the exact state of your craft at a glance. From your vantage point at the helm, you'll appreciate perfect visibility in every direction. No other boat in this class can even come close to the fit, finish, and ease of use of the CABO 35 Express.

Cockpit
Unlike most builders, the team at CABO started with the cockpit, the most critical area for fishermen, and built the rest of the boat around it. With nearly 100 sq. ft. of fighting area, there's ample room to handle multiple hook-ups. The two five-foot long fish boxes not only have oversized drains, but macerators to quickly clear away debris. Each box is fully insulated, gasketed and securely latched against rattles. Drop the lid and it closes with a soft "whoomp" of air escaping from a perfectly fitted hatch. Each lid uses long piano hinges that are though-bolted for durability, and even the usual ankle-twisting drainage canals across the cockpit have been replaced by hidden drains under the deck. The transom door has massive hinges form durability and easy access for boating a big fish. The bait prep area at the forward end of the cockpit has all the space of those on much larger boats, with four deep tackle storage drawers, sink, rigging board, and even an ice box for cockpit convenience. Because a fisherman can never have too many "sticks," there's locking storage for 17 rods. With both fresh and saltwater washdowns, fishing aboard the CABO 35 Express is clean and comfortable.

Interior
Just because the CABO 35 Express is a sportfishing warwagon, doesn't mean it has to be Spartan. The comfortable interior, accented with golden teak, provides all the spacious warmth of a weekend getaway. Standard features include a head with shower, recessed electric cook-top stove, microwave/convection oven, refrigerator/freezer, Corian counters (with sea rails to keep plates from sliding), and ample storage for cruising. The forward cabin has a comfortable double berth, a bureau and settee, while the L-shaped lounge converts to upper/lower bunks. From the deep pile carpeting to the elegant recessed halogen lighting, the CABO 35 Express is both practical and luxurious.

Power Plant
To understand the precision engineering of the CABO 35 Express, you need to spend some time poking into all of the nooks that most builders would prefer you overlook. Every hose, wire bundle, and pipe is clearly labeled and rubber grommeted for chafe protection where is passes through a bulkhead.

All systems are meticulously segregated: electrical on one side, plumbing on the other, and service items like filters on the centerline. The fuel system is built to rigorous specifications, from the fuel tanks fabricated from expensive vinylester resins to the premium aviation style fuel fittings. Even normally hidden areas such as bilges and inside lockers, are ground and gelcoated for a smooth flawless finish. Below the waterline, all through-hull fittings and even the trim tabs have been recessed to reduce drag. Everything from the rudder posts to the fuel manifold system, is readily accessible and it's obvious that the CABO 35 Express has been designed, engineered, and built by people who have barked a few knuckles on less accessible boats. Attention to detail separates the CABO 35 Express from lesser vessels.

CABO YACHT 32 EXPRESS

CABO Yachts 32 Express represents the finest in hull design from Michael Peters Yacht Design, coupled with the renowned CABO execution of overall yacht design, engineering and construction.

The hull is remarkably balanced to provide a dry, smooth and fast ride. A balanced hull is the most difficult design aspect of any sportfisher under 35 feet. The proper balance allows the CABO 32 Express to ride high in waves, kick up less spray and move forward effortlessly.

The CABO 32 Express has a weight distribution similar to that of much larger boats. This allows the CABO 32 to track better, especially in following seas. The key is to move as much weight as possible aft. That delicate balance creates a superior sportfisher, one worthy of the CABO reputation for building the best production sportfishers in the world.

The interior is typical of the CABO Yachts standard of quality, Corian ® countertops, stainless closures, hasps and drawer pulls, finished hidden areas, ample rod storage, upgraded fabrics and materials - everything the discerning sportsman expects from a boat bearing the CABO Yachts name and reputation.

Of course, the CABO 32 is built with the same care and quality as that of the largest CABO - color-coded and labeled wiring, stainless steel hardware and more, as well as the meticulous attention to detail that comes with every CABO.

CABO Yachts designs and manufactures the world's most advanced sportfishing yachts and has a worldwide reputation for unmatched design, quality and performance.
