Design 2701 Cape Horn 81 Explorer



Here is an instance where we were hired to provide exterior styling (only) to improve an older design, in this case built by the Cape Horn Trawler Company. The image below is right after launch and she is floating quite high. This boat is a very rugged world cruiser.

Here she has just been launched, is quite light and floating quite high.


Here is the general arrangement but again this is not our work. I include it for information's sake.


Principal Dimensions
LOA 81'-0"
Beam 22'-6"
Draft 7'-6"
Displacement 360,000 lbs

Design 1492 Explorer



This sport fisherman was designed for use in the Mediterranean. The boat was built by Freeport Point Shipyard of Freeport, Long Island and launched in the summer of '59. She is powered by twin GM Series 71 diesels, producing a maximum speed of 10.5 knots and a cruising speed of 9 knots. Unfortunately we have no images of this nice looking boat.

Here is the general arrangement plan.


And here's an article from Yachting magazine, from 1959.
