Lyman-Morse Hood 57 LM

Lyman-Morse took an innovative approach to the construction of the new Hood 57 LM custom motor yacht developed in a collaboration with C.W. Hood Yachts and Stephens Waring Yacht Design. A Spirit of Tradition show-stopper built at Lyman-Morse’s boat building facility in Thomaston, Maine, it brings head-turning elegance to the Express-Cruiser market.

Perfect for weekend cruising and entertaining, the Hood 57 LM features custom bead-blasted stainless-steel hardware on deck and a spiral staircase leading to the flydeck. These elements were constructed at Lyman-Morse Fabrication. The yacht’s unique open-format cockpit with direct access to the water and dock, along with well-founded accommodations for four, will ensure fun times on the water for family and friends.

This 57-foot power yacht was launched for sea trials in October 2020 and was nominated in January 2021 by the editors of Classic Boat Magazine as the Best New Powered Vessel.

To achieve the expected 39 knots from the Volvo Penta’s IPS 1350 integrated propulsion system, the yacht is engineered with weight-control and strength as a priority.

Stephens Waring Yacht Design provided innovative composite construction details that hybridize wood and fiberglass into a contemporary build method.
