We've been busy in the boatyard as production continues on hull number one of the Hood 42 LM, the latest model in our semi-custom Hood LM series.

We recently infused the hull, and the rollover happened earlier this week. Available as a flybridge cruiser or in a sedan configuration, the Hood 42 LM is a boat you won't want to miss.

A continuation of our successful collaboration with C.W. Hood Yachts, the Hood 42 LM combines a timeless profile evoking a golden age of yachting along with modern construction and design techniques.
