New Muscle Ridge Downeast Boats - Lobster Sportfish Passenger Commercial - Hull and Top or Complete Boat

The 42' Muscle Ridge is one of the newest downeast designs available. It incorporates many of the best characteristics of proven Maine built lobster boat hulls. A traditional stem and sheer, with flair forward and tumblehome aft to create an aesthetically pleasing hull above the waterline. Below the waterline, a hard chine is used; proven in the V-hull form to create lift and stability, with a full keel.

The hull shape is "built down" amidships to allow a lower engine installation while giving a lower center of gravity, and a more horizontal drive line for efficiency. Forward and after sections transition toward the "skeg built" style, dampening roll and creating a narrow keel section just forward of the propeller. The propeller aperature is large enough to accomodate a larger propeller used in higher power applications with out having to resort to a high DAR propeller.

This hull could be compared to the 42' Duffy, 42' Wesmac, 43' Lowell, 44' Calvin Beal, 40' Wayne Beal in several of its qualities.
