CUSTOM RACING YACHTS

Stronger. Lighter. Faster. For more than 45 years McConaghy Boats has been driven by these imperatives and it continues to push the boundaries in pursuit of ever improved performance. Each new project is seen as a new opportunity to reset previous benchmarks and reinforce the company’s reputation as builders of the worlds best grand prix performance racing yachts. That reputation has been earned through an enviable record of reliability and race success, headlined by Maxi yachts like Alfa Romeo II, Wild Oats XI and ICAP Leopard 3, in 2009 with this three boats taking the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners in the Rolex Sydney Hobart Race finishing 82 nautical miles ahead of the next closest Maxi in a race which featured the largest convergence of Maxi yachts the world has seen in recent times.

While some in the industry are just discovering the winning edge of advanced technologies such as pre-preg carbon construction, McConaghy Boats has spent the past 3 decades perfecting them after founder John McConaghy became the first marine manufacturer to adopt and pioneer the aerospace industries developing lamination technology. The world’s best designers know that they can rely on the perfectionist culture at McConaghy to executed their plans with ultimate precision. Owners enjoy not only the 45 years of experience that goes into each and every yacht they also benefit from the performance, singular style, unfailing quality of workmanship and attention to detail that distinguishes each and every McConaghy Boats yacht making them the builder of choice and one that sailors around the world aspire to owning.
