While we are very experienced yacht operators, we are not yacht builders, so we turned to the best in the business to design, fabricate, and deliver this stunning, one-of-a-kind vessel. For the design, and much of the conceptual elements, we work with Zurn Yacht Design in Marblehead, Massachusetts. Doug Zurn and his team have been designing legendary yachts for decades, from bespoke custom yachts for discerning clientele, to award-winning production yachts seen throughout the seas. One of the core elements of the experience aboard our yachts is comfort and safety, and that starts at the hull. We collaborated with Symmetrix Composite Tooling to craft our plugs and structural molds. Symmetrix works in not only the Marine industry, but also Aerospace, Energy, and high performance automotive. Daychaser's hull is built alongside America's Cup sailboats and SpaceX Rockets. And finally, the yachts are built by Boston Boatworks, just up the road from the USS Constitution in Charlestown, Massachusetts. Boston Boatworks is a formidable builder of tried and true yachts, from precious sailboats, to commercial ferries, which is exactly what we require. With a true understanding of naval architecture, structural engineering, and a passion for boat building, BBW shares B&G's love of the sea.
All of Daychaser's elegance sits above the highly engineered powertrain, safety equipment, and mechanicals in the engine room. B&G operates pleasure boats like no one else, requiring execution from the yachts not found aboard consumer boats. For the past 15+ years, we have uncovered the shortcomings of recreational equipment, and made the necessary modifications to keep our yachts running at peak performance. We have taken this knowledge, improved upon it and developed a yacht that is unrivaled in reliability. Commercial-grade Cummins diesels propel the vessel, alongside a generator and electrical system suited for military use. As for safety, our highest-standard USCG Certification provides robust fire-fighting, weather-avoidance, drainage, and monitoring systems. Couple this with our dedicated team of technicians, electricians, engineers and artisans constantly improving our maintenance and construction processes, and you have one mean machine.
