New Launch: "Richmond Lady"

Richmond Yachts launches the "Richmond Lady"​

"The Richmond 142 foot series has been a popular model and has yielded known names such as "Status Quo" and "Sun Chaser". The continuation of the production series will be in the format of the upcoming launch of the fifth hull, "Richmond Lady".

The 270 tonne semi-displacement vessel is on course for launch in August 2008. A generous beam of just under 30-feet adds to the spaciousness of this Richmond model. With a minimum draught of approximately 6.5-feet, coves, marinas and sanctuaries will always be options.

Inside the Richmond Lady, 6 staterooms will accommodate up to 12 guests. Eight heads will service the guests of these rooms. Interior styling has been created by Pavlik while the exterior styling by Ward Setzer.

The fiberglass construction has allowed for light but strong characteristics. Deep within the fiberglass hull, 2 X CAT C32 ACERT marine engines abide. They are capable of cranking out a maximum of 2350 revolutions per minute. At that rate, a maximum speed of 17 knots can be achieved. Slower speeds will ensure a range of 3,000 NM."

Richmond Lady is easily distinguishable from the other 142/5-foot boats in the series with her vertical bridge-windows. The new launch will make her public debut at the forthcoming Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (FLIBS) later this month. She will be at the Bahia Mar on the Face Dock Slip 11. There is a sixth hull under construction and will be launched in January 2009.
