2023 Custom M27

James Moores was a man who spent 45 years of his career restoring and rebuilding antique wooden boats including the presidential yacht Honey Fitz and more Trumpy motor yachts than anyone else in the world. He dreamt of a cold molded boat that would combine the elegance of the designs from the golden age of yachting with today's high -tech marine technology and performance.

PATIENCE is a tribute to great yacht designers of the pre-war era. The ducktail in the transom is inspired by John H. Wells, who was well known for designing his fast-running commuters for Consolidated, Defoe, and the New York Launch and Engine Co. The transom is inspired by the legendary designer L. Francis Hereshoff while the bow is inspired by WWI battleships.

While above the waterline she evokes a more gracious time in yachting, don't let her fool you. Below the waterline, the design team at B&B Yacht Design in North Carolina refined her hull to reach speeds in the 35 mph range. With the slightest of encouragement, PATIENCE will gracefully lift her bow and turn in half of her waterline length. Try that with any other 27 footer on the market. Achieving speeds of 35 mph plus, she will race smoothly across the top of the water and handle like your all time favorite sports car.

The PATIENCE, a M27 is designed for the person who appreciates elegance, unique eye pleasing lines, sea worthiness and wants a civilized little yacht who performs as well.

This is not your grandfather's yacht, but one for generations to come.
