Beautifully drawn, and executed with impeccable craftsmanship, this example of the Monhegan 30 will turn heads and draw admiration anywhere she goes. True to her downeast roots, her lines echo the workboats and yachts that have cruised these waters for generations, yet she has a timeless elegance which separates her from the fleet.
The composite build, consisting of fiberglass in epoxy resin and foam sandwich construction, which is bolstered by aluminum structure in key locations makes for a fast cruising hull which handles the afternoon chop with grace and comfort. She cruises very economically around 18kts and will happily run all day up to 24kts, with top speed of around 28kts. With her single jet drive and all mechanical controls, she is a joy to pilot and rewards the discerning helms person with incredible maneuverability. Picnics are made effortless. Drop anchor with the windlass controls at the helm, before heading ashore with the inflatable carried on the swim platform in discrete Davis brackets. Her robust yet simple navigation electronics consist of updated Raymarine plotter, radar, and sounder, along with Icom VHF radio and AIS receiver.
Halcyone is a one owner vessel which has never once wanted for care and maintained from day one, has always been a one season boat, always enjoyed indoor heated storage, and continues to stun. Recently, a member of the original build team paid her a visit and commented that she may look better than the day she was launched.
Having spent her entire life on Penobscot Bay, Halcyone has been the centerpiece of untold joy and family memories of summers well spent. She is ready to do the same for her next owners!
