Boat by Hand
THE DRAWING BOARD – AUGUST 2008
60′ Classic Motor Yacht
Rockport’s Daniel Skira of the eponymous firm, Skira Yacht Design, still works as his nautical forebears did, rendering his marine creations by hand and in ink, in his case on large sheets of heavy Mylar. Skira’s 60-foot motor yacht was inspired by 1913s style, but has been updated with modern conveniences and design touches. The boat is designed for long-range, off-shore cruising and is spacious enough for a family and, with their own aft cabin, a crew of two.
