In the past several years, American yacht builders have made strides to compete with European builders in terms of size and design. Northern Marine is a builder based in Anacortes, Washington that has built a reputation as a builder of sturdy, expedition-class trawlers. Now they wish to make a splash into the motor yacht market with a 151ft. tri-deck. With a nice design, albeit snub-nosed, and a good layout, this yacht is sure to turn some heads as a new American-made vessel. With features derived from much larger vessels, including an elevator and internal tender storage, Northern is aiming to compete with Christensen and Trinity for a share of an ever increasing market. The first hull of this semi-custom line launches this spring.
