Summit 54; A Fresh Approach To The Kadey-Krogen
When you hear the name Kadey-Krogen a couple things may spring to mind immediately. The idea that the vessel will be one of traditional styling and slow and easy-going is likely to be forefront. You would not be mistaken either if this was your thought-process. The Summit 54 however, is the answer to a number of owner's request in the past. This was for the yard to produce a model or models that echoes the features and safety elements of the 42-year-old brand, but this time around with more speed...

Throwback; Huckins Sportsman 38
Huckins Yachts drew from past experience as well as past inspiration when they developed the Huckins Sportsman 38. The only difference to this nod-to-the-past is the construction materials used and the ability to be hybrid as well as the option to be outboard powered or with onboard Cummins power. The yard's idea to pull on design cues and lines that were popular back in the '30s makes this modern interpretation on the water much more valued...

Future Yachts: Harnessing the Power of Hydrogen
There has never been an argument for building or purchasing a yacht grounded in economics or logic. Decisions are made on one of three bases: logic, economic, or vanity. Owning a yacht has always been a vanity choice, a misanthropic indulgence, until now. Today's superyachts are built with a purpose that answers an economic argument and a duty to serve a logical environmental cause. A new generation of superyacht buyers and their influencers see a world forming their views, and that world is changing...

While boats and even smaller ships have used foils before, such as hydrofoil craft in ferry and even naval applications and to a lesser extent with the Hull-Vane of Heesen 42-meter build "Alive", it is still not widespread across the industry...
