MARLOW EXPLORER YACHTS

The first Marlow Explorer 82 Cockpit Motor Yacht was delivered in late fall of 2006. Built for a customer who is an avid deep sea fisherman and ocean traveler, this yacht is equipped to take you virtually anywhere in the world in comfort and luxury. The extended cockpit features a 40" transom door for hauling in "the big one" or easy egress on a transom-in docking situation. The optional Release fighting chair, Eskimo ice machine, rod holders, tackle center, auxiliary controls, cockpit-activated winch make the science of fishing an art form. The tackle center is built with same perfect joiner work and beauty as the interior cabinets and the 75-gallon bait tank with aeration pump and Lexan viewing port complete this working area of the ME 82CMY. With 3,000 gallons of fuel, 400 gallons of domestic water (with 900 gallon per day Sea Recovery watermaker) and 100 gallons of drinking water, stops between fishing grounds are cut to a minimum if not eliminated entirely.

Marlow Yachts has embraced Resin Infusion from the earliest days of research and development in this field. We are one of a very small number of manufacturers worldwide who have mastered and installed the technology on major molded components. Some boast of infusion however, when examined it is found to be small, inconsequential components rather than hulls and decks. It is our intention to continue the development of this and other exciting technologies in an ongoing quest to build the most efficient, strong and timeless yachts available.

All the items Marlow Yachts have come to be known for that signify the very best will be clearly seen on this new Marlow Explorer. The perfection of complex master molds allow dark colored hulls without a blemish. The Schwepper door hardware from Germany's top manufacturer, Grohe's Infinity series, lifetime warranted bath and galley fixtures bear witness to the builders commitment to be the best. 

On the exterior, exotic custom 316L stainless steel hardware, railings and fittings, hand crafted in their own world class metal shop provide the final touches to her stunning looks. In the gleaming white Awlgripped and air conditioned engine room, with more than 6'5" headroom, super duty drive train components worthy of much larger vessels will provide the propulsive force through the Marlow proprietary Strut Keels that provide great protection for the running gear. Like feathers on an arrow, these innovative components provide the straight tracking in inclement weather Marlow Explorers are famous for. The proprietary sea chest system that filters the water before it enters the yacht and distributes far more water than required is a major component of the mechanical systems. Combined with the common drain system, this innovative answer to cooling supply and discharge eliminate as many as 35 holes in the bottom and side of the yacht. Polished stainless  piping and custom fittings in the engine room and bilges will once again set this new yacht apart from the run of the mill production offerings. High volume pumps, True Sine Wave inverters and other features will grace this new entry as they do on all Marlow Products from the Prowler series through the 86' version soon to be launched. Generators enclosed in custom Lexan see through sound shields allow a visual check each time the engine room is entered without dismantling the enclosures.

This exciting new 82CMY is powered by the optional C30 Caterpillar engines and attained speeds of over 31 knots on sea trials in light ship condition. These 1500 horsepower Cats are mounted, as befits the very best, on polished Stainless Steel engine beds spanning from the forward bulkhead to the custom watertight entry door aft.

The interior arrangement is semi-custom to owners taste, spacious and sensibly arranged with three or four staterooms including a master suite twenty feet wide featuring an abundance of large dovetailed drawers and cedar lined lockers.  Aft crew quarters may be incorporated, as well as a private staircase to the master suite if desired. A very comfortable enclosed Command Bridge, inclusive of dual helm chairs and complete entertainment center is outfitted with the best in appliances and logical storage.

All wood used in the interior spaces are strictly cosmetic, as opposed to structural as seen in common yacht construction. Beneath the old world craftsmanship lies aircraft grade polypropylene honeycomb in lieu of common plywood. This feature alone removes nearly 3000 performance robbing pounds from the structure while lowering the center of gravity significantly. Each teak interior is hand crafted to exquisite detail from a single log which is hand picked in Myanmar, Thailand and neighboring countries to ensure that the grain, color and grade are consistent throughout the yacht. Optional cherry, maple, and high gloss finish are offered, as well. All logs are fully processed at Marlow Yachts' state of the art mill shop located in the environmentally conscious Marlow Norsemen Shipyard where it is Marlow's intent to replant approximately ten trees for each one harvested. To fully utilize the resource, the wood shavings from the mill are used as fuel to power water heating and cooking facilities with the resulting ash used as natural fertilizer for the extensively landscaped twenty five acre facility.
