Just starting to post pictures of the 1973 45' wooden lobsterboat that was designed and built by Donald Wilcox. We have been converting Twist into a modern cruising for a Swiss owner. When complete she will be homeported in Croatia. This boat is built to be CE European compliant . The new cabin is foam core composite construction. A Cat C-9 500 hp is installed. A Northern Lights generator provides 230v/50 hz power. Some unusual features include a 40 gph fresh water maker, European appliances , a hydraulically operated fiberglass folding transom tail gate/ swim platform. The large cockpit and seat boxes were requested by the owner. The teak sole will be laid in a few weeks The cabin windows and port lights are unusual but are in keeping with the original boat
