MJM 36z #11 at our Rushmore dock

Just Awlgripped in a stunning Claret red, must be seen in person to truly appreciate. Equipped with everything you need: generator, two-zone air conditioning in the cabin, island berth forward, electric head and separate shower stall, twin C120 displays for GPS/radar, and hydraulic auto pilot.

The J/111 proved her mettle in IRC last week, taking podium finishes at Cowes Week in the UK.

The 32-boat IRC 2 class had seven days of racing in the big tides and breeze of the Solent, and the lightweight 111 was able to hold her own against some formidable contenders including the J/122, Elan 410 and Grand Soleil 40. Top five finishers were as follows:

Shmokin’ Joe – J/111

Jinja – J/122

Jenga 7 – J/111

Inga from Sweden – Corby 36

J-Xcentric – J/111

Not only does she come with an impressive race record, she is also a proven, comfortable cruiser.

Manhattan skyline as seen from the stern of the MJM 34z on an early morning cruise to New Jersey.

Beautiful, low-hour Formula with bimini, generator, air, extended swim platform and all the toys. All mechanicals are in excellent shape – outdrives recently serviced and ready to go for the season.

The 370 SS has ample seating and shade, making her perfect for a day on the water with all your friends. Excellent accomodations for a family of four to take a week’s cruise.

Owner is motivated, make an offer!

The True North Heritage is truly a different breed of boat. She is elegant, spacious, stable and designed to be used, not just sitting at the dock and looking pretty.

This boat has every factory option and is BEAUTIFUL. Cared for by a very knowledgeable yachtsman and his wife. If you are in the market for a True North, LOOK NO MORE!

The Picnic Boat you’ve been waiting for! Extended pilothouse, flag blue Awlgrip, low hours, impeccable maintenance and realistically priced.

She is a single-owner boat that has been in the Northeast her whole life and always stored indoors over the winter. The Hinckley winter maintenance program and her local yard see to it that the brightwork and mechanical systems are kept in four star condition.

The current owners have already taken delivery of their new Hinckley and it is time for this one to be yours.

We are deeply saddened to report that Tim Mariner passed away on Saturday, April 2nd in Wellington, FL.

Tim was a CPYB broker with McMichael for 15 years and known throughout the Northeast as a highly knowledgeable and professional asset to the industry. He was an active member of Riverside Yacht Club. Tim retired in October to spend more time with his family in Florida. He is survived by his wife of 37 years Liz, his son Chris, daughter Tayler and sister Mary Connolly.

A memorial service will be held 12:00 PM on Saturday, April 9, 2011 at St. David’s in the Pines Episcopal Church in Wellington, FL. An obituary can be seen here.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made in Tim’s name to; Little Kids Rock, http://littlekidsrock.org or Villalobos Rescue Center, http://www.vrcpitbull.com/home.htm

Please stop by on April 9th from 10 am to 4 pm to see the newest boats from EdgeWater, Tartan, MJM, JBoats and Alerion, as well as excellent selection of brokerage boats, all right here at our Mamaroneck yards.

Click here to see the our calendar, including major regattas on Long Island Sound.

Here’s a great clip of the main dropping easily into the v-boom (no flaking neccessary!) and a nice still shot of the boat close reaching with the 150% genoa. Stay tuned for excellent professional photos and video from Billy Black!

Over the past 5 years, the modern daysailing yacht has captured the zeitgeist of the boating community. The idea that a boat need only be beautiful, fast, and easy to sail for a few hours at a time has taken hold in a busy world.

This is something that Alerion Express discovered 20 years ago, when the brand made its debut  in 1991. The Alerion Express 28 has been winning the hearts of sailors steadily over the intervening years, and in 2008 McMichael sold hull #400 of this now-iconic class.

To mark the occaision, Alerion will be offering the 20th Anniversary Edition of the Alerion Express 28. Some of the special features will include:

• Mastervolt 4.2 Pod system with 10-15 mile range
• Teak cockpit sole with recessed Anniversary Edition plaque
• Custom inlaid logo and hand-stitched leather grip on tiller
• Anniversary Edition Awlgrip color scheme at no extra charge

To receive a copy of the complete specs for the Anniversary Edition, email info@mcmyacht.com

We have reserved hull #43, scheduled for August delivery. This will be an excellent chance to finish out the season in the major Fall regattas and get the boat dialed in for 2012, when we expect a One Design fleet to take shape. Trades will be considered for owners that don’t want to miss the first part of the season.

For more details, give us a call or email info@mcmyacht.com.

Sailing World magazine has chosen the J/111 as the 2011 “Best One Design Keelboat.” With 56 boats already sold and fleets taking shape around the world, the 111 is poised to become the next big thing in One Design racing!

SAIL magazine also recognized the 111 as a winner in the “Deck and Cockpit” category, noting that the cockpit is “A lesson in effective simplicity.”
