“Marquesas is a new yacht owner’s Rite of Passage,” said BMD president Nick Boksa, P.E. “The thought was to design a boat that is within reach of the “newly” rich who may not need to build a 60 meter, they can get a lot in a smaller, 38-meter package. Just about any style profile and/or general arrangement will work on the same platform. Just tell us what you want in the boat and what styles appeal to you and we will design it! The hull stays the same, the exterior styling changes to your taste and the mission requirements.”

While the vessel is intended to be aluminum construction for a balance between cost, performance and the ease of customization, production could be accommodated in steel or composite. Designed with a full displacement hull, top speed is expected at 11-12 knots. A traditional twin screw with twin diesel 1200 hp engines, Marquesas could be engineered as semi-planing increased horsepower and fuel requirements. This layout can definitely be modified to accommodate a diesel-electric hybrid setup, losing some area in the lazarette space for the electric propulsion engines and battery packages.With tremendous volume for entertaining and family living, inside and on deck, generous saloon windows provide picturesque, panoramic views but also safely immerse the passenger with the sea amid a natural, understated interior. A spacious, comfortable yacht with a natural flair interior, the general arrangements and layout provide tremendous social spaces supporting an active cruising lifestyle. As such, Marquesas imbues attributes much in the same manner as the boat is tore enjoyed, with terrific views, comfort, serenity and sunshine evoking the aura of a very safe, long range cruiser.
