Lavranos 56 monohull

We have no stock monhull of this size, a USA enquiry to a 55ft yacht kit got me thinking of this boat.


Sea Angel 56

Kevin Johnson Boatbuilders in Devonport is built this under contract from Sea Angel Yachts, the first Sea Angel 56, a fast offshore cruiser for a local yachtsman. Built in wood, grp/epoxy sheathed, the boat has been designed so that it will look after the crew when the elements are at their toughest.

The boat is being built to survey and certification by New Zealand, and European authorities. Hull plating on the Sea Angel 56 is four diagonally laid skins of mahogany ply, glassed over for ease of maintenance. Internal finishes will match those of similar sized yachts at the top of the market.

The Sea Angel 56 incorporates all the equipment for safe and comfortable gulf cruising and ocean passages, including: genset, dive compressor, air conditioning, washing machine, watermaker, airconditioning, and all those other things that make a modern yacht a pleasure to spend a lot of time on. It also carries all the survival equipment necessary for safety when in places where assistance cannot be expected. The large cockpit has been designed so that it can be a preferred sleeping area when the yacht is in the Hauraki Gulf, Australia's Great Barrier Reef, the Caribbean or the Mediterranean.

Note: This boat is a large project,its not your normal amature build kit set,rather a team job that will require a trained boat builder/manager. Having said this,in many respects, building can become easier as the size gets larger.

How hard can that be!
