MITseaAH This 156ft, high performance aluminum motor sailer, was the rst Superyacht to combine the ability to perform well under sail with the high performance of a semi-displacement motor Yacht under power – a Yacht that can both run and y. Desiring both the feel of a large sailboat and the 25-knot speed of his current motor Yacht, Mitseaah’s owner inspired designers Liebowitz & Pritchard and Naval Architect David Pedrick to think radically. Liebowitz sought a balance between sailing Yacht lines and the volume needed for luxurious motor Yacht accommodation and performance machinery, while Pedrick developed the naval architecture. Pedrick proposed a planing hullform for a relatively lightweight sailing cruiser. Telescopic rudders, a swing bulb keel and planing aps morph the underbody from sailing sloop to power boat in minutes. Then, twin 3,500hp Paxman diesels deliver speeds in excess of 20 knots. In addition, a shallow 6.5ft draft under power and a retracting top-mast section give Mitseaah a choice of cruising grounds. Inside, Mitseaah features ve luxurious staterooms in the owner’s party, along with a well-appointed crew apartment for eight professionals. “It was the people and their skills that rst attracted us to Pendennis. Throughout the build of Mitseaah the care, attention and craftsmanship has been worldclass which resulted in great personal relationships. We would not hesitate to use them again for our next build.” Mitseaah owners
