News: FPB 78 Explorer Yacht "Grey Wolf II"

FPB 78 Explorer "Grey Wolf II" Delivered
​

For some, she may be a candidate for the Rouges thread but her lack of style on the outside makes way for her utilitarian and no-nonsense approach to exploring missions. Her name is "Grey Wolf II" and she is the latest FPB 78 explorer yacht from Circa Marine being a sister to "Iceberg" and "Cochise". Her design comes via Steve Dashew who has been instrumental in these FPB explorer designs.

This small yacht has an amazing range for her size boasting 7,100 nautical mile capability at 10-knots thanks to her dual Lugger L1066s. The interior is light and airy and focuses on creams and tans and uses ample wraparound windows in the saloon to aid in the spacious feeling. As many as six guests can be accommodated onboard along with two crew members. This yacht is truly an explorer and her interior may be luxurious but she is built for business. Made in all aluminium she has an unfaired exterior which adds to her rugged personality. Grey Wolf II also has 'anti-capsizing' characteristics along with with owner-operator capability. Grey Wolf II is likely for the same owner of the Dashew "Grey Wolf", a FPB 64. This series is catching on with a third FPB 78 under construction by the New Zealand yard.
