The first model to represent Boston Boatworks’ vision and passion for creating a high-quality offshore yacht, the new 57-foot BB 52 Offshore Express Cruiser exemplifies the company’s pedigree for integrating composite engineering with high-strength construction and artisanal workmanship. Since each series yacht is manufactured in limited-runs, the BB 52 blurs the lines between a custom and production boat.9
“The BB 52 embodies our 27 years of experience building the best high-performing offshore yachts, with some of the world’s most knowledgeable and avid boaters,” says Scott Smith, Boston Boatworks CEO and founder. “This is the boat we’ve always wanted to build, for the dedicated express cruiser owner-operator that we know best. The fit, finish and functionality included in our inaugural offering reflect everything we’ve developed from building over 350 boats, and we have concentrated the best solutions into one design to call our own.”
For the BB 52, Boston Boatworks partnered with renowned yacht designer Doug Zurn and interior design firm Winch Design to create a yacht that offers intuitive handling and superior quality with graceful lines and a luxurious interior.
“We are excited to work together with the team at Boston Boatworks and Zurn Yacht Design on our very first American offshore cruiser,” says Joost Roes of London-based Winch Design. “As a brand that is all about lifestyle, we are delighted to be involved in a project that resonates with us and our clients. In every design we create, we strive to create a comfortable home on the water. A client should step onboard and feel the harmony between interior and exterior, experiencing a high level of comfort and build quality. The BB 52 achieves all that — and more.”
“The BB 52 is the culmination of years of experience building lightweight, efficiently driven powerboats combined with contemporary, timeless styling to appeal to discriminating yachtsmen,” adds Zurn. “Having worked with Scott and the talented shipwrights and engineers at Boston Boatworks for the past 20-plus years, in numerous capacities, I can say our working relationship is like no other.”
