In ideal conditions on Chesapeake Bay, a taut fleet of 17 contestants vied for top honors in the 2023 edition of Cruising World’s annual Boat of the Year competition. When the spray had settled, at the top of the leader board was a pair of yachts destined for blue water and beyond: the Lyman-Morse LM46, the Domestic Boat of the Year, and the Hallberg-Rassy 400, the Import Boat of the Year.

In 2018 we got together with Cabot Lyman from the East Coast USA yard Lyman-Morse to look at putting together a new semi-production yacht that that would appeal to the modern sailor whilst still having that ‘soul’ aspect that only a wooden yacht can achieve. Both Lyman and Dibley have believed for a while now that the modern production yachts coming out of the various European and American yards have lost that individual magic that perhaps only a semi-production timber yacht could achieve. A modern classic, that would appeal to the younger crowd for family cruising and club racing as well as for older sailors who crave the simplicity, functionality and bonding that they used to get from their yachts back in the days of less plastic when timber gave the yacht heart and soul. Lyman and Dibley were introduced to each other by expat Kiwi Chris Bouzaid years ago when Cabot stopped into New Zealand on his world circumnavigation voyage.

Dibley Newsletter June 2019
Over the last 6-months we have been working closely with Cabot Lyman and the Lyman-Morse yard on a 46-foot semi production performance cruising yacht that would appeal to the modern sailor but have that soul aspect that only a wooden yacht can achieve. Lyman-Morse have been boatbuilding on the East Coast of the USA for over 40 years and are one of the most well established and trusted yards so a perfect fit for this project.

We were introduced to Cabot by expat Kiwi legend, Chris Bouzaid who mentioned that Cabot was looking for a modern classic that would appeal to the younger crowd for both their families and Club Racing, as well as older sailors who crave simplicity, functionality and a bonding to their boats.

This is only an introduction to this project as we are putting together a more detailed Newsletter dedicated solely to this yacht over the next couple of weeks.
