The aft and forward dock-line tie-in's are handled by 12" cleats and the spring-line mid-ship cleats are 10" cleats. All-around safety is provided by custom 1" polished stainless steel guardrails that are 25" above the 8" gunnels for maximum safety. 

The foredeck is well-spaced and well thought-out. The MAXWELL 2500 windlass handles the 100' feet of 3/8 chain and 200' of nylon rhode. The two below deck secured hatches have ample storage for fenders, spare anchor, wash down hoses for the fresh water and salt water hook-ups.  

The clean low-profile fixtures on this cabin top provide a well balanced look that aides servicing and function. The antenna mast is 45" off the deck by 39" wide and holds masthead light, anchor light, 2- VHF antenna's, a SIRIUS Galaxy antenna, RAYMARINE R5150 antenna's and the 50" open array RAYMARINE radar.

Directly to port is the Birdseye maple custom inlaid adjustable height table with ample bench seating for 4 people. The large windows utilize OCEANAIR drop-down blinds for limiting the outside light and utilizing the dimming 19 LED recessed overhead lights.

There are 4 above counter lighted cabinets, 4 below counter cabinets and 4 drawers for all crockery. 

The large two drawer SUB-ZERO Model 700BR refrigerator provides easy access and blends well with the mahogny decor matching facia. 

The openness of this galley to the salon happenings and the opposite side office lounge / 2nd stateroom combines with the 19" portlights and overhead hatch to create an inclusive, open enviroment. 

Opposite the galley to starboard is a office with built-in 4 drawers and cabinets. The access is via large multi-stop "pocket door's" that seal off this compartment.  Above the desk are large custom OCEAN PANEL electrical panels with red lighting to not intrude on the rest of the occupants when this space is converted to a stateroom. Separate MARINE AIR heat and a/c controls along with the 19" port light keeps the atmosphere comfortable. There is 7 recessed overhead LED variable lights and a wall mounted adjustable lamp with shade.

This head is accessed directly from the second stateroom and from the master stateroom which can then create a his and hers head configuration when no guests are aboard. The custom vanity features a composite counter-top with a large 16" by 8" deep oval sink. There are 3 cabinets above counter and 2 cabinets below counter. The ensuite shower has a raised removable teak grating above the drain. The port light and overhead hatch provide ample natural lighting and air flow. There is a wall mirror next to the VACU-FLUSH head.

This compartment is easily accessed from the mater stateroom and features a separate shower with glass-door entry. The custom composite vanity counter-top is the same as the second stateroom head with the 3 mahogany above counter cabinets. Below the counter-top is a drawer and 2 cabinets. Next to the VACU-FLUSH head is a wall mirror and natural lighting and air flow is provided by the overhead hatch and large port light. 

The curly maple headboard provides the perfect accent to the mahogany cabinets and trim. The berth measures 54" wide by 8' long with abundant storage below. The over head reading lights, flatscreen television, and music system controls are available from the sleeping position. The standing height of this compartment is 6' 6". The reverse MARINE AIR coupled with the 31" x 31" overhead hatch, 4-portlights make for open feel and plenty of air control options. The large 6-drawer mahogany storage and opposite side hanging locker provide clothing storage. 

Asending from the salon main hatch down 4-step ANTAL sliding rack-ladder you are ahead of the engines and have ample access to the raw-water sea strainer shut-off valves as well as the fuel manifolds. Standing room height 5" 10" is available on the centerline between both engines. All areas are very well lite revealing the splendid engine room execution the Lyman Morse is famous for. 

The standing-room aft mechanical compartment is where the water jets and carbon fiber drive shafts are located. This compartment becomes water-tight when an air pressure change occurs.

Maine’s Jet Set The action stopped and heads turned as we brought Whistler to the dock in Rockland, Maine, the day before the Maine Boat Show began last month. Whistler is made by Lyman-Morse Boatbuilding in Thomaston, just down the road from Rockland, and this 54-foot beauty would be a showstopper wherever it turned up. Designed by C. Raymond Hunt Associates, Whistler boasts a performance to match the elegant sweep of its sheer line and its classic yet aggressive profile. For performance, we registered 36.7 knots on the GPS coming down the St. George River in a 15-knot wind with 1,000 pounds of fuel on board before we turned left at Port Clyde and headed up to Rockland. That’s a result of the Hunt state-of-the-art composite hull and the Hamilton water jets, driven by twin 1,000 hp Caterpillar C18 diesels. One notable innovation is the garage; push a button and the hydraulic gate lifts up on the transom and a sled extends over the jets so the owner can launch a 10-foot dinghy with ease. The elegant interior is built for a couple, with a master in the bow and a study that converts to a guest cabin. The woodwork and hand-carved embellishments are exquisite. You can drive the boat using traditional controls, a joystick or a hand-size mouse for pinpoint docking. The jets mean only 2 feet 11 inches of draft. They also mean we didn’t have to worry about the lobster pots when coming in to the show. lymanmorse.com — Peter A. Janssen
