northcape 43

Recently completed at Bluefix is the NorthCape Custom 43 named Rowe’De’O.

Full epoxy foam core construction using resin infusion and powered by twin Cummins 600hp engines.  The NorthCape Custom 43 has been designed for manoeuvrability with a dramatically curved transom and tumblehome hull running aft, this boat gets through the corner fast, with the drive chain further apart than anything else on the market.
